Without even a name

    Wikipedia says 66 rebels were killed. This IT article from 2015 says "new research" says 58.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    This page lists 63 deaths and locations. I count 8 deaths in the GPO, and 4 in nearby streets.

    The same page has photos of some of the dead, and this isn't any of them unless it is a very young The O'Rahilly? No, definitely not

    It could be 7, 11, 14, 29, 32, 33, 39, 50 on that page.
  • Dubris said:
    How old would you say he is in the picture - late teens or early twenties?
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Dubris Looks very much teens to me, but it could be an old picture of whoever as a teen.
  • derangedlemur said:
    We've seen a lot of airbrushed photos where the subject turns out to be 10 years older than they look. He could be anything from 18 to over 30. He doesn't seem to match any of the descriptions of children killed in Dublin during the rising, hence the 18 limit. He has quite a high forehead, so if you imagine a few wrinkles, late 20s or early 30s may not be so fanciful.

    A DIA entry says the building opened in 1886.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Tram tracks but no electric wires, so 1872-1906 (no help!)

    Whoa, OSNI has had an upgrade! I can view this at 50 inches to the mile! (but I haven't worked out if i can link it...)
