Higher Level Paper
Pillbox Caps (Hats?) as seen above and below.
Is it Pillbox or Pill box? is either the correct name?
Tell us everything about them.

No-one named Jenkings in the 1901 census in Galway. Here is a possible Jenkins family
Yes, looking at the OSI, Ballybaun is a townland at the Northern boundary of Clonbrock demesne. -

According to the Wonderful Wizard of Wikipedia,
" ... In the 19th century pillboxes were worn by the units of the British Army and its overseas possessions as well as by the Boys Brigade. ..."
See - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillbox_hat#
I vote for pillbox ... -

Niall McAuley Niall, I would say you are correct, they were certainly productive, a big family! I see in the building report that they own the house, I was surprised by that.

This is my chief suspect: maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,681209,718750,11,9, based on the topography and the census saying that clongorey extends down to oldconnell. It's gone now though.

23 November 1888 according to this YouTube video (part 1 of 4). John and Andrew Fox are mentioned at 7:43.

EDIT: I think the 1888 date must be wrong. There is no mention in Trove of anything before 1889 - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/result?q=clongorey+evictions+&... -
