This newspaper clipping was kindly passed on to me from Brian Murphy from the Bosco Youth centre on Davitt Rd.
The picture was taken in 1952 and is about the amount of twins in the school. Apparently, “among the 3111 boys and girls in Our Lady of Good Counsel at Drimnagh, Dublin, there are no fewer than 41-sets of twins. Our picture shows the twins in the girls’ school”
Are you one of the twins? If so we would love to hear from you either in the comments below or through the contact page.
is there a digit too many there?! lovely story all the same…
Hi Vera
Do you mean the 41 sets. I don’t think it’s wrong, thats a picture of all the twins at the time.
It’s an awful lot all the same.
