Day Place, Tralee has been described as “The most respectable locality in Tralee”. This book studies the occupants of Day Place, a terrace of ten Georgian town houses in Tralee, over a 100 year period.
The terrace was the most fashionable and sought after address in the town. Its residents were among the wealthiest and most influential in the area.
This book brings some of those colourful residents to life, uncovering their activities and attitudes. It paints a picture of the rapidly changing religious and political landscape in which they lived.
The volume is part of the Maynooth Studies in Local History series. The author Laurence Jones is chairman of the Annascaul Historical Society and has contributed many articles to the Irish Genealogist.
