I have a copy of songs of the Wexford Coast. In case someone not picks, the picture is not on the cover but inside. I doubt any library has a copy to loan. If you want a scan of the pic of Lanigan Walsh let me know. Always available to Wexford queries but dont look for familiy histories.

Hiya Jaylay, nickr90, shellback and Tony,

I've found a Magical History Tour of Wexford complete with photographs. The article mentions that The Municipal Buildings, the offices of Wexford Corporation, were the former boarding school, the Tate, built with the bequest of a Wexford man who made his fortune in the Jamaica sugar trade.

Nicky Rossiter's book "My Wexford" was published last December.

Hi nickr90,
Would really appreciate a scan if you have time, I appreciate you don't do family histories, but in this case its the photo that eludes me. You can  post scan on the other thread i started if you don't mind.

Very best wishes
Tony
