I wonder if my grandfather Owen Murtagh is in this? My grandmother was Nurse Murtagh.

I wish I had a roster to go with the picture, but I don't. The picture is in an album my dad has and he knew which one was his father.

I'd be related to the Duffy's, Fidgeon's, McMahon's and possibly these Brennan's as Nurse Murtagh was a Brennan. I wonder are there any school photos of Owen Murtagh at all. No idea of the dates though. Amazing photograph.
