Since the photo of the last day came from Interlaken, I assume that "B. Oberland" means Berner resp. Bernese Oberland (Highlands).

Very interesting and unusual shot. Perhaps a way of "copying" those images? One imagines it was entirely deliberate and with some purpose. Unlike modern photos of shoes, thumbs and pocket lint, it would presumably have been very difficult and unlikely for this type of shot to have been taken accidentally. "Oops - I took [and then went to the INCREDIBLE trouble of developing] a photo of the floor again" seems an implausible exclamation :)

slice of life shot. wonderful

guliolopez :D

A nice nod to 3 photography studios - Chancellor, Lafayette [30 Westmoreland Street], Mansfield [90 Grafton Street]. Wonder what was in the ickle box that's half missing?

It's flipped left to right.

I see the DBC on O'Connell Street so after 1901 - Archiseek article

And on the ballast office, the time ball is down, another Ulysses moment, Episode VIII, "Lestrogonians": Mr Bloom moved forward, raising his troubled eyes. Think no more about that. After one. Time ball on the ballast office is down. Dunsink time. Fascinating little book that is of sir Robert Ball's. Parallax. I never exactly understood. There's a priest. Could ask him. Par it's Greek: parallel, parallax. Met him pike hoses she called it till I told her about the transmigration. O rocks!

Niall McAuley Unflipped at your request.

One hit for that name in the 1901 census, clearly a catholic girl's school. Age 16, Birthplace County Galway.

Birth record from 1884, somewhere illegible near Gort. Father William, profession possibly Teacher and..., mother might be Johanna.

Yes, the 1901 census shows William and Johanna, both national teachers in Ardimullivan.

Siblings Lizzie (19 and a Monitress) and John (12) also at home, along with Bridget Little, another teacher, and one servant Lizzie Murphy.

"Photographers to the King & Queen" implies after 1901.

A Mary Clandillon graduated from The Royal University of Ireland in 1906 with honours (2nd class) in modern literature.

POINT OF INFORMATION On Wednesday 31st January 2018 the NLI Flickr Photostream with all the research and information gathered will be archived. The Irish Web has been archived by the NLI over the past several years and this has led to the archiving of the photostream. Carol has been linking the information gathered on each shot to the catalogue and now the archiving will ensure that it is preserved for future reference for those who may wish to research!

Wikipedia on The O'Rahilly. Datewise, this must surely be after the formation of the Volunteers in 1913.

We have visited Ballylongford before:

One of the truly heroic figures from those times. Thanks for the photo. Hadn’t seen it before.
