Wonderful glimpse of the past and those that have gone before us. Time is the thief of all things but projects like this and the records they keep can sometimes outwit it. Great job here Keith. Ronan
Leitrim is mighty as always! We don't know who the people are except that all the images were taken in the County. The only image with a name is the family group outside a house and shop with the name of Hogg. Slán, K
Do you mean turn of the 20th century? That would be early 1900's which is the time period the pictures look like they are from. Turn of the 19th century would be early 1800's and I don't think they even had cameras yet. Not picking on you I just really want to know when these pictures were taken, they are fascinating.

Only rich people had cameras back then.
And photographers.

It's crazy to think that every child in the past was pure evil and always had sinister motives... or these pictures just make it seem that way. 😄
