Mr O'Connell's premises at 24 Main Street, Thurles - maps.app.goo.gl/DdscMCbg8MgVPSN8A

Edit - Wrong! Again!

Not Michael "Mixey" O’Connell?

beachcomber australia A fair ways from Thurles, every town had a ‘Main St.’ so perhaps Thurles’s one was renamed?

Now more appropriately named Ashe Street. Maybe we might continue in this tradition and name nearby Russell Street as ORahilly Street. This Sir john Russell a British PM and supporter of Laissez Faire economics was no friend of the Irish in time of famine. This query on Russell Street is now unclear and the indications are that it was not Lord John Russell British PM but named after a local property owner or landlord which was normal practice. Russell Street apparently was named in1837 and Lord John was relatively unknown by then.

I'm trying to locate photos of a pub that was on Nelson in 1911 and some time after that. It was at 54 Nelson and called Nagle's.

There were 55 houses on Nelson street. The last few seem to make up what was Bailys as seen on the photo. According to the 1911 census the occupants of No 53 were James Nagle and his occupation was Tea and Spirit Merchant. In the 1901 census no 52 appears to have been a Grocer and Publican called Doyle, I think this might have been the pub called The Railway up to the 1990's.

54Nelson Thank you very much! I've added all of your information into our tags...

1874, 1885, 1891

Gibson's was [Edit: yay!] 9 Broad Street, which means it is this corner here (only the slope of Patrick Street remains!): Streetview

When did Lipton's add "By Appointment"? . Before 1896, anyhow. This page has an 1896 ad with By Appontment, but also an 1893 ad without it.

Here's a large 1892 ad.. I think this would mention the royal appointment if it had happened.

So, 1896, maybe?
