    He must be quite young, or else a blow-in. In 1911, the only coal dealing Nolan in Waterford was Michael, aged 57 with no children to pass the business on to. There were various youthful Josephs about the place, though.

    The ship, the Luimneach, was sunk by gunfire from a U-boat in 1940. All of the crew members survived, 15 making their way home via Spain and 3 being imprisoned as POWs in France. www.wrecksite.eu/wreck.aspx?12944
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    According to this set of articles on the Limerick Steamship Co., the Luimneach was previously the Fairfield that had been sunk at Zeebrugge in WWI and later raised. It had been built in 1915, in Tyne, and was in service at the LSS Co. from 1922-1940.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Also according to that article, if it is 1931 then, the ship's captain would have been Captain W. McNamee, who retired in August 1932.

    Possibly ordered by Walter J. Farrell, master mariner and harbourmaster of Waterford port. Here he is in 1911 living in Sion Row, but in a house larger than anything standing now, I think. Possibly in one of these mostly demolished houses (Streetview).
