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.
beachcomber australia said:
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.

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...
Mike Hannon said:
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.
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
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...
Mike Hannon said:
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.......

horse poop and barefoot child. mix of slate and thatch too. the town awaits drains and utility poles. can't see a dog. The image doesn't sell the dreams of a rural/small market town idyll

Foxglove Seeing an old Dog around here is a thing of the past!

Remarkably unchanged over the years, most of the buildings still stand. Hard to believe that a small street designed for the horse and cart a century ago today serves as part of the N84 Galway/Castlebar main road with all its heavy traffic. The modern street view looks a lot cleaner than the rather squalid looking street of the photo, despite modern pollution.
