    Very interesting for me, as Thomas Wynne was my Great-great Grandfather. His daughter Mary opened a branch of the photographic business in Loughrea, and married my Great Grandfather in 1894. Somewhere in a cupboard is an old photo album with some of the family prints in.....

    Mike Hannon Amazing, Mike, what a ridiculously small world!! We'll be adding more photos from our Wynne collection over the next while - let's know what you think... Meantime, you should rummage in that cupboard!

    I've added yo as a contact, so I can keep an eye out for more on here from your archives. I've scanned two prints from the album, converted them from their fading yellow to black and white, and uploaded them to my photo-stream. I have to say I've no idea who the photographer was in either case. The full length portrait is pretty much self explanatory, but the group around the still is quite interesting. Nothing to say who the group members are, or where the location is. Perhaps you could shed some light on the matter?

    Looks like a Back-end-of-a-bus view - goo.gl/maps/t4VcLivGeg9BxybD9

    There's a good café about 6 doors up. I always stop there when I'm in Swinford.

    The nearest Mellets are in 1911 in Foxford

    Also, Gnomes of Zurich is a bit of a stretch, surely? He might just as easily be a Bermuda Triangle or a Servant of Cthulhu.

    Interestingly, Market street has moved from being this street when this photo was taken, to being now what was then chapel street. The Pawnbrokers on market street (i.e. possibly the one in this image) in 1901 were David and George Meade. Edit: In 1911, all the bankers lived on Main Street, which according to the OSI was not in fact a thing. So perhaps market street in the census is where market street is today, and not the street shown above.
