    That's probably the Mayor at the time John J. Wyley who came up in previous discussions. He looks a bit more like 35 than the last candidate:
  • O Mac said:
    Do you know how St Patrick managed to get so much done? He had a very large staff.

McGee's? The more the merrier!

    2/20 with happy faces ... Crossing the ankles seems to have gone out of style - The ankle cross indicates that the person is holding a negative emotion, uncertainty, fear, feels discomfort or threatened, stress, anxiousness, insecurity or timidity. The ankle or scissor cross also shows reservation and self-restraint, due to withholding of a thought or emotion. When being pitched, it shows resistance to the sale and when being questioned might indicate that lying is taking place. ... From - bodylanguageproject.com/tiny-book-of-body-language/what-i...

    May be wildly putting the cart before the horse, but found this birth announcement in the Irish Press, 5 September 1949...
    McGEE – August 29, 1949, at St. Monica’s Nursing Home, Lr. Mount Street, to Matthew and Mary McGee, Collinstown, Lusk – a son.
    The clothes do look like late 1940s. Could this be Matthew and Mary McGee?
  • George FitzPatrick said:
    Is it me or is there a lot of dirt and shreds of waste paper on the carpet particularly to extreme right? Or is it on the plate.
  • Bernard Healy said:
    You'd have to think that the wedding must have taken place in Waterford or the surrounding area for Poole to be photographing them in the studio. On-line Civil Records only go up to 1945, and I'm not spotting any obvious candidates for a wedding involving a McGee.

    Three priests - is that usual ?
  • derangedlemur said:
    beachcomber australia Rectors and curates, more likely. Heaslips generally are COI. There was a Jack Heaslip who was the curate in Malahide for a while, but he'd have been a generation later than this. Coincidentally, he was followed by a Mr Long (I can't remember his christian name). Edit: Kingsley Long - that was his name.

    There is also a studio shot of the central four, if that is any help - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000595315
  • derangedlemur said:
    Mind you, in 1911, all the Kilkenny Longs and the only two Kilkenny Heaslips were RC, so maybe they're priests after all.
  • John Spooner said:
    Narrowing the date very slightly, familysearch.org shows Jack John Heaslip marrying Eilis Long in the 4th quarter of 1952 in Thomastown registration district.
