Thanks to all who have replied.
Picked up a copy of two of the books mentioned. They are excellent books and would definitely recommend them.
Two books were "Irish Travellers Tinkers no More" by Alen MacWeeney.
Also picked up a 2nd hand copy of Jill Freedmans "A Time That Was". Got Jills book for around 8 euro including delivery :-) absolute bargain and the pics are class
Thanks again all. Have a lot of names that I will slowly get through searching on the web over the next while
Cheers

A guy I always Liked was Pip Sides, based outta Enniskillen .. Stumbled across his place years ago when lost in NI ... before I even owned a camera! and bought a few over the years ..

Are there any Irish photographers that are historical that might have files on the web going back to the early 20th century up until maybe 1930? Maybe news photographers that have covered events. I'd like to see portraits of famous Irish people going back that far.

Neil still shoots film but the web does no justice to his images
