Backyard of 358 Tuam Street

1949/1950

"This photo was taken in the backyard of 358 Tuam Street. It was common practice to put very young children like the twin boys in the front of a play pen to keep them safe from running out the gate. As the photo was taken the twins boys were trying to climb out of the pen. They couldn't keep still. Left from back is a cousin Pam Foster, the twins, sister Sheryn. Left middle is Fidelma (Sheryn and twin's sister) in front is Henry trying to break out and Edward (Eddie) Girl on the right is Jill Foster. The girls climbed in the pen for the photo." - Contributor's note
