    There is only one Corbella in the 1911 census, Luigi Corbella, 43, House Dealer, a visitor at (I believe) the Imperial Hotel. on the Mall, Waterford.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Definitely the Imperial Hotel, Niall. Wonder what an Italian born House Dealer was doing in Waterford? He was there for the census night of Sunday, 2 April 1911, and seemingly back (or still staying) at the Imperial Hotel 3 years later in May 1914. From looking at other Poole photos of Mr Corbella, he was also at the Imperial back in September 1903. Think we might be able to take it that he lived there? Or at least used it as his base when in Waterford?

    To water the horse of course! And still no dog in sight? edit But the masts of the ships down at the end of the Mall are such an interesting sight!

    Yahoo. A Cork one again. And I didn't get you any present Carol. Here's the Street View anyway.
  • ccferrie said:
    The National Irish Bank (built 1853-55) and adjacent brick building are still standing

    Swordscookie Maith thú! Dán álainn gan dabht! Doubt if it is a fire tender. They would have employed a team of 4 horses at least, for speed. Could be provisioning them thar ships though?

    guliolopez The AIB Building in the foreground of the streetview was built between 1909 and 1913 www.dia.ie/works/view/8092/building/CO.+CORK%2C+CORK%2C+S...

    Tycor Road today.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Perfect, thanks! Wonder if it was a biggish house that's not showing on the OSI.
  • Paul O'Farrell said:
    There doesn't appear to have been much in Tycor (or Ticor as it was spelt on the OSI maps back then) when this photo was taken. The nearest big house would probably have been the Manor of St. John in Lisduggan. This is Tycor on the 25" OSI map maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,658965,611881,6,9
  • Paul O'Farrell said:
    There does not appear to have been any Powers living in Tycor around this time, I wonder if this was taken at Mrs Powers parents house, if so it might possibly have been at the home of Walter and Ellen Hearne. Walter was a caretaker at the waterworks in Tycor and was 72 in 1911. The house in the photo looks more like a small cottage and the kind of place a caretaker might live, bit of a wild guess I know:) 1911 Census for Walter Hearne www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai003503919/

    Here's what you get if you type Tycor house Waterford into google. That house is not on the 25" map, surveyed June 1905.
