The terrace of houses was demolished in the 1970's so this is likely one of the last remaining images of Queens Place.
Eileen thks for that. I already had it & that started my search.
Eileen sorry new to this site. I dont have any details of his wife but I believe he had a son Alexander Thomas (Sandy) Collins born Cork around 1851. Possibly a son Jeremiah born Cork 1847.
Thks
Eileen Jeremiah died at St Patricks Hospital & a Katie Harte was present at his death - relative possibly??
