    My grandfather, Joseph Featherstone, was a railway ambulanceman in Darlington until 1911, when he migrated to Australia. I wonder if he would have been involved in this incident, if he had remained in England.

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Intelligent Travel - National Geographic Traveler's blog, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    This photo is amazing, that area looks pretty much the same. To the immediate left, out of frame, is the post office (now). If you make a right up that street is All Saints Cathedral and school. Went there from 8th-12th (class of '96)
  • National Register of Historic Places said:

    There is a house called Kilgainy near Clonmel on the 25" map, but it does not match what we see here. It is gone today.

    Some lovely hattage there for our La Belle Province!

    24 February 1922 was a Friday ...
  • Bernard Healy said:
    Here is the death record of Cornelius Phelan of Kilgainey: civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/death.... He died in 1949 aged 73. That gives him a birth year of about 1876, making him about 46 in 1922. Haven’t found a plausible marriage record yet for any Phelan in that part of the country.
  • Bernard Healy said:
    Okay - a few more leads 04/01/1918 - Freemans Journal lists sale of land (at Kilganey & Croan) & a 'beautiful residence' to Mr Con Phelan. Munster Express 19/10/1928 - Acttion by Waterford Board of Health against Mr Phelan of Kilganey for failure to register under 'Cowsheds & Dairy Act.' Irish Press 23/06/1945 - Andrew James Phelan, 1st son of Cornelius Phelan of Kilganey House, called to the bar in Dublin. (How old would that make the first son? Is it consistent with a 1922 marriage?) 1963 Law Directory has him based in London. Irish Press 26/05/1949 reports the closure of the Factory and Showrooms of Phelan & Company, South Brown Street, for a day on account of the death of our Cornelius Phelan (death record above) who was a director of the company. The firm (per Thom's 1937) was listed as 'furniture, wire mattress, curled hair, and bedding manufacturers' and gave the proprietor as MF Phelan of Ailesbury Road.
