wynnealbum

Interesting to note that both of the Wynne images you've uploaded have a magenta cast. Is there a specific reason for this? I have a fading print of this photograph in the family album, which I thought of uploading to my stream, but you beat me to it. :-)

Oh sorry, Mike! I was just so eager to get it up there. Really don't know about the magenta cast - many of our Wynne photos have it, and I love it personally...

No need to apologise at all. It's one of those photos I was sure you'd have, and in far superior quality to the print I have. The remainder of the photographs I have are of the immediate Wynne family members, and then my Great-grandfathers offspring, so I hope to see many more of T.J's photos here.

Well, if you're uploading any of the family members to your own stream, let's know - would love to see what they looked like...

Haha! I don't think I'll go that far yet, as I only have the free account on here, and I'm limited to 200 photos. I did come across two postcards from the era that I've scanned and posted, and though the photographs aren't credited to Thomas, they may be of interest.......

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.

Ooo! Mr French / Lawrence went there too. Spot the Differences!

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)

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.
