Do you know them?


The photographs which follow have turned up in family papers and I would appreciate any help you might be able to give in identifying who the people are, and any information you might have on them.

I have indicated what information I already have with each photo. Unless otherwise stated, they are from my mother's collection, and would be mainly from my Granny's (Burgess/Mortimer) photos.




This photo came from Miriam Burgess, Queenie's daughter. The medals may be a clue - I can't see if they are for sport or dancing.

This photo came from Granny Mortimer's collection. The photo studio was Allison & Co and they had premises in Armagh, Newry, Dundalk and Warrenpoint. Both the woman and girl are wearing glasses.

Now identified by his daughter Breda as Seán Kelly, son of Bea and Michael. Photo is likely UCD graduation. Seán died 1990, RIP.

Thank you Breda. You are the first to identify any of my wanted notices. Take a bow!

This photo also came from Matt. I think it has the look of Mick Dwyer about it? I assume the forehead marks are on the photo and not a result of brain surgery.
