| 説明 | "Two little children bathing in seaside two other figures in distance, town visible in background"This image is from the Clonbrock (Dillon family) collection, and is dated c.1900, but where did they spend their holliers that .. eh... summer(?)Per derangedlemur original suggestion, it seems a safe bet that we're at Salthill. The "corroborating" photo from Dr O Mac in particular seems to confirm that, as Niall McAuley had suggested, we're probably looking SW from Grattan Road towards the Promenade.Owen has also identified the children as George and Mary Mahon from Castlegar outside Ahascragh, Co galway. Their mother was Edith Dillon daughter of Augusta Caroline Dillon from Clonbrock and their father was Sir William Henry Mahon. The photograph likely dates from 1914. (Summertime)Sounding the seldom used People Identified Klaxon with one hand while ringing the Date Established bell with the other!!If you have the time please have a look at our recent Blog entry by Sam McGrath, Cataloguer, Joseph Holloway CollectionWhile cataloguing 19th century books, you can occasionally come across a little hand-written inscription that will make you pause for a moment and reflect on life’s journey. This was certainly the case when I opened the non-descript ‘Fireside tales for the young – Vol. 3′ by Sarah Stickney Ellis (NLI Call No. 15A 629) and was met by two poignant messages.The first one read :“Thomas Kenny is my nameand on this book I write the sameand when I am dead and in my gravethis little book will tell my namewhen I am quite forgotten”.Photographer: Member of the Dillon familyContributor: Luke Gerald Dillon, Augusta Caroline DillonCollection: Clonbrock Photographic CollectionDate: Summertime 1914NLI Ref: CLON1319You can also view this image, and many thousands of others, on the NLI’s catalogue at catalogue.nli.ie |
