"View of slag heaps and mine buildings, in an unidentified location" = Avoca!

    Could it be near Avoca and would that be the Avoca River? There are old mine workings there.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Robin Parkes It could. Fergus O'Connor took photos around Wicklow alright.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    I think Robin Parkes is right, and here's the 25" map link.
  • Swordscookie said:
    Robin Parkes It is hard to tell from modern photos but I think that you are right Robin. There are a few on Flickr and this came up as well. I think that this is a close modern shot of the mines. www.visitwicklow.ie/attractions/avoca_mines.htm Well done!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Here is Jane Byrne, shopkeeper, 56, of Templehusk, Ovoca, Wicklow. Oddly, in 1911 she's 75, while her nephew Martin has mutated into her brother and lost 3 years!

Jos. Choate & Wm. Appleton (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • dale.neighbors said:
    The building in the back is New York Public Library, at Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street. Joseph H. Choate and William W. Appleton were both Trustees named in the first year of the New York Free Circulating Library. This photo may have been taken at the opening of NYPL in 1911.

  • The Library of Congress said:
    Thank you all for the information on the NY Public Library and the two men in this photo. We will add some of it to the information when we update the database.
  • Elizabeth Thomsen said:
    There's a memorial to Joseph Hodges Choate in Salem, Massachusetts, his birthplace, featuring an allegorical statue of Liberty by sculptor John Massey Rhind (1860-1936).

Group of what may be foreign dignitaries

    I think the fez-wearing man is here, meaning that it is probably Tailteann Games dignitaries again:
  • guliolopez said:
    Some overlaps with this group? (Or am I just being swayed by the fez?) www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/18426438103/ [EDIT: Snap Sharon Corbet :) ]
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    guliolopez At least we have notes back this time!
  • John Spooner said:
    The account of the opening of the Tailteann Games in the London Times on Monday, Aug 04, 1924 says
    Mr Healy was accompanied by Sir John and Lady Lavery, and with him in the stand were Mr. Compton MacKenzie, Mr Augustus John, Mr G K Chesterton, Mr John MacCormack and Sir Edwin Lutyens, and a number of representative foreigners.
    Is that Augustus John third from left on the back row, with his best side towards the camera as in the Time cover? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augustus_John#/media/File:Time-maga... I'm not so sure now. [edit; I'm convinced it isn't him, but the picture of him in the London Times at the even's garden party has his head at exactly the same angle]

    "but what else do we know about them?" It is conspicuous, they are having a good time.
