This is a picture, in
part, of my grand uncle (brother to my grandfather, Owen Kavanagh) and his
two sons. His name is Patrick Kavanagh (on the right in the dark jacket and
sailing cap). His sons were Patrick Jr. (at the rear standing next to the
mast) and Jack (at the tiller in the white jacket and cap). Patrick and
Patrick Jr. were solicitors in Cork City. Their business offices were at 9
South Mall and 43 Grand Parade. Patrick Sr. lived at Arfallen House,
Sunday's Well Road. By checking telephone directories at the Cork City
Library I was able to determine the firm was in business until some time
between 1988 and 1993. The last contact by my part of the family was made by
my father, John Kavanagh, while on vacation in Ireland in the late 1950's.
He visited their office. Perhaps some one might know or know of the
descendants of these Kavanaghs. Please contact : Owen Kavanagh (chaomhanachoptonline.net*) |

This appears to
be an entire family - father (obviously a minister) & mother, two sons, a
grandfather and either 4 daughters or 2 daughters and 2 domestics. I think
it may be 2 daughters because the girls are alone in picture number three. I
don't know the family's name. My mother gave me the pictures years ago and
said the family were relatives of my father and lived, she thought, in
Kilkenny.
The names in my family are: Kavanagh and Blainey (great grandparents on
my grandfather's side) and Dench and Cassidy (great grandparents on my
grandmother's -Dench- side). This is all the information I have at present.

a promotion for the Giant Oxie Company, a manufacturer of plasters. On

Dear Sirs
I have been very ill and not able to attend to the Plasters, but I have
sold them since last Friday, and was very happy to hear from you. My mamma
has also been very ill for the last six months but she is better now, and
after I have received my premium I will send for more plasters. I am now
going on my 15th year, and will send you one of my pictures.
My papa is going away to sea soon and I would like to get the premium
before he goes.
