From Patrick Wilkie memoirs: Pop remembers "Paddy of the Sticks" (pop said everyone pronouced his name Pat-scheen), he had a little business selling blackthorn walking sticks on the top of Ross Road." www.pinterest.ie/pin/41517627795069832/?%24ios_deeplink_p...

    Too bad Lawrence could not have captured him actually making the sail éille "walking sticks".
  • John A. Coffey said:
    He has used an old auction poster for his sticks, might have the name Crowley on it.

    Sharon Devine commented 5 years ago on this image (before the Marys took over) and had some news for us. She showed the image to her mother who was 82 at the time and she was pretty sure (99%) that the prisoner in the photo was her grandfather. His name may have been Peter Grant and it would be fantastic if it turned out that we could confirm the identification and get some more detail! I sent a Flickr mail to Sharon but after 5 years she may no longer be active on Flickr?

    Theo Fitzgerald was Leo Fitzgerald's brother if I remember correctly:
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    There's more info on the photo here from one of the comments on the Leo Fitzgerald photo including the name of the dog (Poppett). The above photograph shows Countess Markievicz and senior Fianna officers Theo Fitzgerald (Assistant Director of Training and Organisation) and Thomas McDonald (Waterford O/C) in 1917. According to Patrick Hearne, Waterford Vice-Commandant, Markievicz was invited down to Waterford to give lectures to the local Fianna Sluagh. Hearne recalled that Markievicz “lectured in the City Hall on the 1916 [Rising]. She was accompanied by Theo Fitzgerald. Afterwards a banquet was held at the Metropole Hotel”.
