Statue of the Queen

  • BobMeade said:
    Looks like the statue of Her Majesty in Macquarie Street, near Hyde Park. I'll have to check on that one.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Yes it is - www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/2363479550/ Centennial celebrations a couple of days early on 24 January 1888 ?
  • beachcomber australia said:
    No, it was the unveiling of the new statue of Queen Victoria in the renamed Chancery Square, with a crowd of 60,000. See the Sydney Morning Herald for 25/01/1888 (the following day) page 5. trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/page/1391390?zoomLevel=5
  • beachcomber australia said:
    It is interesting to read in the newspaper above that the original intention was to move the statue of Queen Victoria from the Garden Palace ( www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/4067538364/ ) to this position, but it was unfortunately destroyed in the great fire of 1882.

    I'd say that's the dome of the St Saviour's Dominican Church on Bridge Street in Waterford in the background (right)
  • Rory Sherlock said:
    Yes - this was taken on Merchant's Quay in Waterford - the building with the barred windows and the church are visible in this image: catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000592135

    Fergal and Maureen's Wedding Could it be? I have redacted the surnames to protect the couple. The marriage between Fergal McXxxx, of Ardmalin, Donegal, and Maureen O'Xxxxx , eldest daughter of Sir.Cookie O'Xxxxx, of Swords, Co. Dublin, took place on Thursday, the 29th of February 1997, in the pretty parish church of the Star of the Sea, Malin Head, Clonca, Co Donegal. The service was performed by the Rev. Richard M. Lloyd, M.A., assisted by Canon Marconi and the Rev. J. Spooner. The bride, who was given away by her father Sir Cookie O'Xxxxx, was attired in a gown of Louisine satin, the skirt being trimmed with bandigued frills of accordion-pleated chiffon. Mr Lawrence French (Adelphi Quay, Waterford) was the best man and Miss Carol Spears (Kildare Street, Dublin) the Chief Bridesmaid. A Mr O'Dea ably assisted by the young Mr Poole took a few snaps of the happy couple on the day. The wedding was followed by an enormous reception at the The Seaview Tavern to which all the residents of the Townland of Ardmalin were invited. The loving and happily married couple are still living nearby with their three children Niall, John and Mogey and their stuffed dog NeLI !!!! :)

    That doesn't really count as a photo taken during the "Emergency" Carol...
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    oaktree_brian_1976 Honestly, you're sooooo picky! It shows a structure erected during the Emergency - doing my best here... :D
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    DannyM8 You're a complete Looper! And I'm saying that affectionately. Arrived back from a day at me conference so rushed that it wasn't until I got to Sir Cookie O'Xxxxx that I realised you hadn't actually uncovered a complete family history just from two grafittied words on a wall in Malin Head... :D As blackpoolbeach would say: "I'm off for a long lie down in a darkened room!"
