Such an unusual shot for a film photograph? It is quite different in its approach and composition to most and very interesting for that reason. I was visiting Galway a lot around then but was more interested in rivers and rugby pitches so I can't help with Mullins but the boy reminds me of myself just a few years earlier.

A butchers shop, I think - so the kid is dreaming of mince. A look at Google maps shows that the building is intact but painted a startling lime green - and home to a creperie called Zatsuma. A creperie in Galway City. Who'd have guessed that in 1964?

John Lord Mince, eh? That's what I get for stereotyping children - thinking of a sweet tooth instead of carnivorous tendencies...

This is as close as I can get in Streetview.
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
Niall McAuley Oh don't talk to me! Spent a good 5 minutes trying to get the same view - slithering up and down Shop Street, muttering ominously that if Mr O'Dea could do it, then so could I. Shamefacedly gave up, but I am bloodied but unbowed. Virtual sticky bun (hot from the wholly imaginary NLI oven) for anyone who can get the same view in Streetview...

Welcome back. There was an English / Prendergast wedding at Ballyduff Church on the 12/06/1918 see Wedding Certificate.
The Priest was Fr. Prendergast, Groom is John English (I saw some of his movies!) Bride is Ellen Christina Prendergast. Witnesses were Michael English and Mary Slattery.
Niall McAuley said:
Hope you had a good break!

I found the same marriage as Danny, but too slow!
Niall McAuley said:
Birth records continue until 1924, I don't see any English/Prendergast babies in Waterford
Niall McAuley said:
Found them in Carrigmore, Clogheen, Tipperary.

Edmund, Thomas, Anne, Eleanor.

Robert French would have taken the photograph from the two story house on the right. The window frame on the Lynch building can be seen in bottom right www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/22844068380/in/photolist-...

This is one of Galway’s great stories. It is said that in 1493, the mayor and magistrate of Galway James Lynch FitzStephen, hanged his own son from the window of his home. Lynch's son confessed to have murdered a man, a Spanish merchant sailor in the care of the family who had romanced his girlfriend. When no one could be found to carry out the execution, Judge Lynch hanged (or lynched as the practice became known around the world after this event) his son himself, ensuring that justice prevailed, before retiring into seclusion. The memorial is now embedded in stone above a Gothic doorway on Market Street near the graveyard at St. Nicholas’s Church. www.activeme.ie/guides/attractions-2/lynchs-memorial-wind...
