IRELAND’S oldest photographic agency celebrates a unique birthday this year, a century after it was founded by an ‘orphan’ from Rathmullan. By Cronan Scanlon
Daniel (Dan) MacMonagle founded his photographic company in Killarney, County Kerry in 1913 along with Killarney Printing Works, and later, ‘The Kingdom’ newspaper.
Born in Philadelphia, USA, in 1883 of Donegal emigrant parents, he was ‘orphaned’ at the age of three when his father, also Dan, passed away.
It is believed his mother, Roseanne, could not afford to raise him on her own, so she sent him on the boat back to Ireland along with another family member to be reared in her home town of Rathmullan.
