    The catalogue says commissioned by Mr. Medlycott, Portlaw. The Medlycotts in the 1911 census.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    John Medlycott died aged 45 on Feb 10th in Portlaw, and Mary F. Medlycott was present, same family from the census above. Likely the 5 children from the census: Constance and Florence the older girls, John and George the two boys, and little Lilian.

    O Mac I think you are right. The double windows with outside wooden shutters seen here - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000592859 - seem to match Clonegam north side. Lots of interesting info and enlargeable photos here - theirishaesthete.com/2019/07/01/curraghmore-church/

    Monkey went nuts with 'Caronia' photos; 15 at least - catalogue.nli.ie/Search/Results?lookfor=caronia+morgan&am...
    It looks like the ship is anchored there. And Monkey swung by several times as the white yacht moves around. And something is going on with the lifeboats ...
  • John Spooner said:
    The Caronia called at Dun Laoghaire in early June according to the Belfast News-letter, though it just mentions that the cruise ship had called at an unspecified "Southen port" and Kingstown, and naturally concentrates on the civic receptions for the tourists in Bangor and Belfast. From Bangor the cruise was to continue to Norway. (Belfast News-Letter - Saturday 05 June 1954)
