    51 and 52 have been replaced by an ugly bank. 50 with the bay oriel window is still looking good: Streetview, 25" map at GeoHive

    Oriel window building dates from 1870 per the NIAH

    In the window I see David Brett's Nursery Painting Book. I see some books illustrated by a David Brett around 1906-1911, but I can't find that particular book yet.

    Imperial Rover sign: Per wikipedia: Rover was established in 1878 by John Kemp Starley in Coventry to produce bicycles. The company developed and produced the Rover Imperial motorcycle in November 1902.

    I'm guessing the gent in the shop doorway is Frederick Wm Day He was in Nenagh in 1901, too, but living in Barrack Street.

Were you ever out in the Great Alone, when the moon was awful clear?

    From what I can tell, the Railway Hotel was on Barrack St. (now Kenyon St.) but the OSI is currently down, and I can't find a proper match on streetview. ETA: Spoke too soon Streetview
  • guliolopez said:
    Sharon Corbet is correct I am sure (as usual) as we find the Hogan and the Ryan [edit - probably the wrong Ryans - see Sharon below for correction] shopkeeping families on Barrack Street in the 1911 census.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Michael Hogan in 1901Census as a Provision Merchant. Michael Ryan in 1901 Census though it's his mother who is a newsagent/publican while he's a Clerk.
  • guliolopez said:
    Michael Hogan is listed in the 1911 census as 48 y/o and the 1901 census as 37 y/o. This puts his birth date around 1863, and we also no from the census that he was baptised R/C. While there's no guarantee it's the same Michael Hogan, there is a baptism record for a Michael Hogan (born to Michael Hogan [Snr] and Honora Darcy) in the local parish registers from May of 1863. (About two-thirds down on the righthand page among the other baptisms of 15 May 1863).
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    guliolopez Is it not this set of Ryans in 1911? 2 doors down from the Ryans?
