Beautiful. Thank you. My mum was born in1906 and my dad in 1914. County Cork for my mum and County Galway for my dad. I remember barefoot children. I remember rushing to the front window at my granny's to see a car go past. I collected water in from the well.....etc...etc... I could go on. Fine people!!! Brave and strong. 🤗
You can slow the playback speed: I’m watching at 0.75 of normal speed. It slows down the music too of course, so if that bothers you, you can mute the sound, but it doesn’t sound too bad.
The post Great Hunger Mayo workhouse c. 1850 is a hard one to take if you're Irish. The men would have been forced to separate from their families as was the rule. What unimageable things these children must have witnessed, horror beyond our darkest fears.
Yes, that one got me too. I'm from Mayo, wonder if that was the workhouse local to me in Ballinrobe. The stories out of it were terrible. The bastard landlord Lord Lucan filled it with families he viciously evicted between 1847 and 1850.
It also breaks a myth, that were no photos taken of famine victims, during the great hunger. Although these were the "lucky ones" who got into the work house, and look reasonably well fed, although some still look half emaciated... Amazing and moving to look straight into eyes of Irish people, living 170 years ago, who witnessed first hand, the greatest catastrophe in our history.
Feel so sad looking at my beautiful country , the history culture people , sad and hard times for sure but still a beautiful country, sadly all sold out to Globslism , no more an Irish nation no more an Irish people gone forever and all that remains are memories
I agree with you. My Dad was from Cork City and remembered the Easter Rising. I was born in England but hold an Irish passport. I can’t believe the changes in such a short time. It would have broken my Dad’s heart.
We're a small country with a small population. When you look at England and see that its capital is 42% foreign born not including 2nd generation. Imagine the devastation it's going to have on us. Politicians sold the soul of the Nation for a few pieces of silver.
Very interesting and good background music. Should’ve been a little longer on each photo so that one can read the caption then have a good look at the photo. Pausing while viewing doesn’t work because of the darkening and pause marks.
I look at these photos and it makes my heart sad. My biological grandfather came from Ireland amidst great poverty to try make a new life in South Africa, what struggle he must have gone through to leave his country of birth. I would love to visit Ireland one day.
People forget the poverty in ireland , and people died young.. often relatives took over the rearing of another child, who parents died young..my granny told me shoes often only worn on a Sunday to mass, and kids hated wearing them, barefoot normal,
Yes and other parts of Dublin. The Big Shot FF developers destroyed the city in the 70s especially. As a student I remember being appalled watching them demolish a beautiful Cut-Stone building roughly opposite The Gresham. Then there was the the destruction of that building on the Corner south of O'Connell bridge heading for Trinity. They also destroyed one whole side of a Georgian Square not far away from that and many many more. That's the triple grand alliance: Ignorance, Corruption and Politics.
@@dukadarodear2176 corruption, lots of brown envelopes, still going on today, but people keep voting FF, FG, back in, they give developers planning permission because they are getting corrupt payments, when they do something wrong there is no accountability 👌
vilamor007 : O’Connell Street is a downright disgrace with low brow gambling/gaming establishments, far too many tacky fast food businesses, derelict and undeveloped sites, a homeless persons family hub about 50M from the GPO, little or no visible police presence and drug dealing
A truly wonderful collection of IRELAND'S PAST. Is this collection available to purchase either individually as B+W photo prints or is it available in BOOK FORM? WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE.
Watching this video made me very sad, but I still feel proud to be Irish. It is a wonderful and a beautiful Country and one day, hopefully very soon, it will be united. Nr. Ireland.
The photo of the woman walking and boys in background was actually taken on dublins o'connell St.near parnell Square.i know because I'm standing in the exact same spot where that photo was taken.those buildings are still standing.that same photo is on one of those buildings today
I spend 15 golden years of my life in Dublin continuously and then send back by the gnib in 2019 , it’s mean it’s a international human youth abuse program of Ireland
The last picture of the volunteers in the GPO is perfect. The man 2nd from right making the funny face makes it feel more real and natural somehow. Everyone needs a joker to keep their spirits up. Also the very young lad first right. I hope they survived the battle. God bless all those young men.
I recently found a certificate of attendance belong to my Dad for St. Patrick's boys school 1937. I would love to be able to look at the fight in the school yard for to try and see if I could identify my Dad in the photo.
The boy on the right in the final photo, in the GPO, is my great-uncle Robert Murphy. At 15 years of age, he was the youngest person on the inside during the PO siege; this Sunday Times article (behind a paywall, alas) describes the convoluted story that brought this photo to light. Robert's brothers Hubert (my grandfather) and Frederick were also Volunteers during the Easter Rising, stationed in the Four Courts.
A really hard life no money anywere it makes you wonder how they actually survived so many people and no work and it wasn't as if they could pop down to the social security and sign on there was no such thing s
Also England had a sea blockage ,and I'm told were frustrated that the country didn't collapse economically. Thanks to family members sending home what they could . Very strange how the folks back home have treated the Diaspora even to this day . I grew up not far from the Airport .Every day the mail plane flew overhead much to the joy of everyone .
Having Irish great grandparents this was fascinating to watch. I have visited this beautiful country and mourned the day the Americsns took over Waterfird Crystal they destroy history every where they go.
As someone who remembers, there was a great sense of togetherness in those days, of belonging to a people, to a Nation. This has gone with the deliberate destruction of nationalism to be replaced by membership of a global world. In this, people belong everywhere but nowhere.
nice video, just moved a little too fast for me as by the time I had read the text I did not have enough time to see the photo. But of course i used the pause button to enjoy the pics. Very nice post though.
My beautiful lreland so much faith, so much humility, so much passion, so much Love in Hate. My poetry is inspired by being allowed to Cycle the Countys - the Lands from Kilmore Key to Schull to Mizzen Head alone with the cold Atlantic yet not lonely ever. Thank you mother ireland - you have given my life grace - belief in me mark the english poet reborn in the turfs of Eire & Carrauntoohil mountain atop, again climbed alone l held the hand of Eire.🎗mx
I have family living in Dublin ,was over last Xmas had a great time ,I also met my partner in Dublin a great pub on George’s street . I’d love to come back to Dublin one day for the craic .

Really Brave and Strong! God Bless Ireland and Its great people.
My father was born in Enniskerry Co Wicklow 1902. His mother, Bedelia Hamilton came from Galway. Dad was a quiet rebel
@Hazels88 Mm a vastly different place. Glad of beautiful memories.

My Mother land,❤️☘️🇮🇪
My truly proud Ireland I love you,❤️☘️🇮🇪
How beautiful and the little girls all dressed in white in St. Petersburg
Superb but a 'photograph' taken in 1850 of famine victims? Not sure about that one...but amazing glimpses of the past all the same
Looks more like early 1900s to me- the women's clothing and hairstyles of the children are wrong for 1850- it's also too clear for that time.
Great photos.
Not enough time to browse and read the footnotes though.
People had great dignity back then even in bad times.
Thank you.

Judging by the clothes and hairstyles of the children, I'd say it's much later than 1850- more likely early 20th century.

True story
Yep, sold it's soul to the Euro and 'being part' of it all. Greetings from a Dublin born boy residing in the USA.

@@grlfcgombeenhunter2897 told I can find you on any channel 🤣🤣🤣
Really beautiful. Sad to see the poverty endured by so many . my mum was born in 1938. She always says ' we live like lords now'.wonderful.
Mainly down to the British occupation.
Never forget
Very interesting and good background music. Should’ve been a little longer on each photo so that one can read the caption then have a good look at the photo. Pausing while viewing doesn’t work because of the darkening and pause marks.
Yes j agree I would like to pause these photos instead of a quick flash.
I agree with you.
( Exactly ). just was thinking the same thing myself, it may as well not have been on here at all.
Just use a PC.. Pause clean . Download or Search old pics Ireland Google images...
Superb selection of great historical interest
Thank you so much for sharing

Are you on Ancestry uk ? Trace people, I am adopted too & dna results are linking me with people I didnt' know existed
Great photos. Thanks.

beautiful pictures. A glimpse of a different Ireland!!
I was born Dublin, parents went NZ . I have lived in Australia. Great life here. The Irish do very well outside Eire
My mom was born in April 1935. Having no shoes was normal in the claddagh
Dublin city was a far more beautiful place then than it is now, Great pics thanks for sharing, 👍👍👍

Wonderful to see these historic photos. Thank you

Cash send from Irish working abroad . The Post office had either 3 or 4 deliveries daily except Sunday . How many years ?
Also England had a sea blockage ,and I'm told were frustrated that the country didn't collapse economically. Thanks to family members sending home what they could .
Very strange how the folks back home have treated the Diaspora even to this day . I grew up not far from the Airport .Every day the mail plane flew overhead much to the joy of everyone .
Correction on Alcock and Brown. They were the first to fly the Atlantic non-stop.
I heard Alcock and Brown were 2 Africans am I wrong?
Fascinating pictures of Ireland in times gone by.
Minute 2.35 mayo famine workhouse powerful image
Maybe you could slow this down a bit to allow more time to view these excellent images.
Hold your horses... Good photos though.
Having Irish great grandparents this was fascinating to watch. I have visited this beautiful country and mourned the day the Americsns took over Waterfird Crystal they destroy history every where they go.
Absolutely amazing. Hugely important archive.
Very good selection. I'd say the Monto shots were taken a decade later than 1910 judging by the ladies' hats.
