    this has to be a burial at Glasnevin Cemetery? I recognize several of the monuments.

    You are quick off the mark - it is indeed Glasnevin!

    1922...how great it this! A little peek into history.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    I know! Great view of what's going on without having to clamber on the headstones like the guys in the background did...

    From the Irish Press, 12 June 1933...
    MATT TALBOT CROWDS FLOCK TO GRAVE OF DUBLIN WORKER The grave of Matt Talbot in Glasnevin Cemetery, Dublin, became a bed of flowers yesterday evening and over 300 petitions were placed in the wooden box over it, after thousands had visited it in honour of the eighth anniversary of this Dublin workingman's death, on Trinity Sunday, 1925. Among the pilgrims were a Maltese, a Dutchman, and a number of Americans. A large number also came from the Immaculate Conception Sodality, at St. Francis Xavier's, Gardiner Street, to which Matt Talbot belonged for forty years. The petitions will be taken out and sent to the diocesan court, which is collecting the evidence for the introduction in Rome of the Cause of this Servant of God. Mrs. Andrews, sister of Matt Talbot, was present with a number of other relatives. The rosary was recited during the evening. One of Matt Talbot's fellow members of the sodality told an IRISH PRESS representative that since the diocesan court began its proceedings the numbers visiting the grave every day in the week and particularly on Sundays had grown immensely. His fame was spreading far and wide.

    Is he still in Glasnevin or were his remains moved to an inner city church near Croke Park?
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    DannyM8 Looks like he's had three resting places: He was originally buried in a poorer part of Glasnevin Cemetery before being moved to the vault where Fr.Gentili was buried. The coffin was moved in 1972 and the remains now rest in Our Lady of Lourdes Church, Sean MacDermott St., Dublin.
  • Augusta Godenot said:
    so...is he a saint?
  • Carol Maddock said:
    Augusta Godenot I think he's a 'Blessed'. Good to see Flickr back up – I've been getting Bad Panda all day!

    To cheat slightly, there's a list available in the Jeremiah O’Donovan Rossa Funeral Souvenir Programme.
  • Carol Maddock said:
    Sharon Corbet Cheating's such an ugly word, Sharon! It's a research resource... :) Who did the fantastic numbered jigsaw for our RIA photograph a while back? *shakes fist and glares at Flickr for taking away our vital Notes feature*

    Here is a cool interactive map of Glasnevin using Streetview to tour famous graves.
  • Niall McAuley said:

    A further "research resource", namely the photo with names below.
