    It seems to be looking east out over St Alphonsus Convent to the sea. About here, I think: maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,714802,736883,11,9

    The obvious place for an elevated view in the cemetery is the O'Connell round tower. Shadows are being cast right to left, so we are probably looking East-ish. Sure enough, we would see the Botanic Gardens if looking North, and a lot of railway looking South. Even by the time of the 25" map at GeoHive, nearer the end of the possible date range, the only terraced houses are to the east.

    Saint Teresa's Road is built, but Saint Teresa's Place is incomplete. The NIAH map is sadly blank in this part of Dublin.

    So, before the 1907 survey of the 25" map.

    We seem to be missing St Columba's Church, as well.

Fianna Éireann Council, 1915?

    Lonergan it seems left to join his Family in the U.S.A. in 1914. Therefore, the photo is not 1915 or middle of front row is not Lonergan. Lonergan statement - BMH
  • DannyM8 said:
    Throughout these early pioneering years of the Fianna, Lonergan’s family frequently asked him to join them in the United States; despite his love of Ireland and his passion for the Fianna and the newly founded Irish Volunteers, these constant appeals eventually persuaded him in 1914 to ‘up sticks’ and leave his homeland to be re-united with his family in New York City.

  • Carol Maddock said:
    DannyM8 Think it is deffo Michael Lonergan, so before or during April 1914 then? Also interesting that he writes of the Houlihan brothers, rather than Holohan. I think I've seen Holahan as a spelling also.
  • DannyM8 said:
    Carol Maddock Carol Yes to the date range. I have seen this picture on other sites with the 1915 date.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Padraig Ryan is probably the Padriag O'Riain mentioned in the Fianna Eireann wiki article as being secretary.

Road near Botanic Gardens (Finglas Golf Club), Glasnevin, Co. Dublin

    There's a thread from 2014 on the Glasnevin Heritage FB page about a similar search for this site. They seemingly couldn't find it on the OSI. Although the thread has a few suggestions on location...
  • Carol Maddock said:
    Earliest mention in the newspapers is Friday, 7 July 1911 - a snippet about their July Monthly Meda which was 18 holes against bogey apparently. In October 1912, the hon. sec., John B. Patterson had an unemployed man - ultimately fined 5 shillings and costs or 7 days in chokey - taken to court for trespassing on the links. (Evening Herald, 25 October 1912) They had women members too, according to the Irish Independent, 10 January 1914.

    The Glasnevin Heritage page on Facebook has some information, indicating that it closed in 1920 m.facebook.com/GlasnevinHeritage/photos/a.182651638552178...

    The Glasnevin Heritage FB thread suggests that perhaps it was around here - close to the junction between the Finglas Road and Old Finglas Road. An area I happen to know fairly well. And this image rings no bells at all with me. The landform behind the clubhouse could indeed well be one of the "disused sandpits" labelled on the OSI map. And would be consistent with the "road near Botanic Gdns" description. Whereever it was, seemingly Taoiseach John A. Costello was a member. And, according to his biography, he had some difficulty getting home from there during Easter week 1916. The route he describes cycling (to Rathdown Rd via North Circular Rd) doesn't really help much.

    That OSI sheet, DN018-03 was surveyed in 1907.
