    Mr French / Lawrence went to the Rectory / Parsonage to take this reverse-ish view (see comments from nine years(!) ago) -

    The bearded man looks like Edward Nangle, but he left Achill in 1852 - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Nangle (warning - not a happy story)
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The church is called St. Thomas's, the dia puts it at 1852, nearly 20 years later than the 'colony' nearby.

    Niall McAuley Yes. Wiki has 1855 for the church opening ...
    St. Thomas Church
    In 1848, a site was obtained for a new church in Dugort. The church was eventually erected with the aid of funds from a widow in Cheltenham, England who had donated a sum of £2,400. On 18 March 1855, St. Thomas Church was opened for divine service by Bishop Plunkett.[9] The service was attended by 500 people including one convert of 107 years of age who walked five miles to attend.

    William Pike of Glendarary, J.P. Barrister-at-Law, died in 1881 and was succeeded by his son, Richard James Pike. Major Richard James Pike of Glendarary died 29/11/1891 and was succeeded by his son, Richard Nicholson Pike.

    "The only resident landlord on the island, Mr. William Pike ...", from a very disturbing contemporary Freeman's article about famine on Achill Island in 1880 - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/133486960?searchTerm=p...
  • Rory Sherlock said:
    Funnily enough, the only person with the surname Pike who was enumerated in Mayo in the 1901 census was a German-born Church of Ireland jeweller by the name of Eanos Pike who was living as a lodger with the McNamara family in a three-roomed thatched house at Slievemore on Achill Island, not to far away from Glendarary!
  • Rory Sherlock said:
    Looking at the housing and building returns on the 1901 and 1911 censuses, I can't find a house to match Glendarary - there are six pages of records from the townland of Sraheens, but nothing of this size - could the house have been uninhabited as early as 1900?
