So frustrating not to know. He is about 7 making his first communion. I presume there is nothing written on the back. Everybody reading this, please write names and dates on the back of your photos, especially the old ones. Future generations will appreciate it when they are going through your stuff after you have flown.
God bless your eyesight Jim. I can't see anything except childish scribbles. If it is 1887 it could possibly be grandad James Waddell but I am sure Eileen would know if it is her dad.
Does anybody else think Kieran, Colins son, has a look of this boy? I enlarged it to see if I could see 1887 on it.. (I could'nt).. and was a little taken aback to see a resemblance to Kieran..
Maybe it's Jimmy and not Tommy. Was Granna called Jimmy when he was small! The date 1887 would fit Granna better and the boy does have Granna's long face. As well as that Granna would be more likely to have kept a picture of himself. On the other hand it could be one of the Maguires!

Me again. Sorry Paul, just noticed that you are the poster. I took it for granted that Jim put it on the blog.
Could it possibly be granna making his communion? He does bear a resemblance and the date would be right. A wonderful find if that is the case.

Grandad Waddell had a brother Thomas born about 1889
Evelyn..
What happened to him. The resemblance to my son Kieran at that age is astounding.
