    Terrible. Today no one knows what real poverty looks like. Embarassing for the Brittish upperclasses!

    I can imagine those big families lived in very small houses with no personal space for anyone, sharing one room for many to sleep.

    [https://www.flickr.com/photos/94586980@N06] Campo Hubert unci_narynin Thanks for your comments, these photos are very thought evoking. I think our collection of photos does show the vast differences in lifestyle across the class divide in Ireland at the time. The ownership of productive land seems to be the main driver of these differences.

    This may be the same location as the next picture with the camera turned 180º looking up the road. www.google.ie/maps/@55.0440914,-8.1941899,3a,75y,15.41h,8...

    An excuse to link to one of my favourite shots ever:
    The O'Halloran girls, Bodyke, Co.Clare
  • Niall McAuley said:
    I think this eviction is on the Vandeleur estate, at the far side of Clare from the O'Halloran girls at Bodyke.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Niall McAuley We either linked to it for one of our other eviction pictures, we had it already, or all evictions look the same. I reckon we saw it whenever you last trotted out your favourite pic above.

    L_ROY_01769 is "T.Birmingham's house, Moyasta, Co.Clare with Battering Ram and soldiers outside", and appears to be the same house.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    This looks like the same house as in this archive image, titled T.Birmingham's house, Moyasta, Co.Clare with Battering Ram and soldiers outside

    The Vandeleur evictions took place between 18 and 30 July 1888. Mr. French, a photographer working for Lawrence, was present at the eviction of Matthias McGrath in Moyasta on 26 July and at some of the other evictions. See `The Vandeleur Evictions in Kilrush 1888: The Plan of Campaign' by Noel J. Mulqueen (1988) and `The Vandeleur evictions, Kilrush 1888', by Ignatius Murphy in The Other Clare, Volume 4 (April 1980), 37-41.

    My Grandmother's Family ( Liddane ) were evicted from their farm in Rehy, Co. Clare in the closing days of the 19th Century. Rehy is not far from Moyasta. The family scattered to The UK; The USA; and New Zealand. The youngest son, Dennis Liddane, was killed in France on Oct. 10, 1918 about a month before the end of World War 1. He was fighting for the American Army. I don't think he was even an American Citizen. Dennis is buried at the Meuse Argonne American Cemetery in France. So sad. The family never recovered from the death of the last born child.

    Marine Attack Squadron ( VMA ) 225 As you say, "so sad", especially to be killed so close to the end of WWI. Thanks for all of the above information, and the Clare Champion article is lovely....

    A more recent article from the Clare Champion. The name Linnane should be Liddane. In Sept. 2011, I was able to get approval from the US Army for the Purple Heart and two WW 1 Victory Medals for Dennis Liddane. The US Army will not be sending the Medals to me in NY til the Summer of 2012. I will be taking the Medals back to County Clare in 2013. I intend to give these Medals to the people of County Clare.
