Richard Boyle, 1st Earl of Cork, at thepeerage, and here at wikipedia Ooh, a big entry at the Dictionary of irish Biography

His 7th son Robert Boyle is the lad from Boyle's Law: PV=k

This is not a memorial erected after his death: Boyle erected an elaborate monument to himself, his wives, his mother, and his children in The Collegiate Church of St Mary Youghal, County Cork

Still there Google Earth Link earth.app.goo.gl/AUVNZE #googleearth

The NIAH entry about the church says: The collection of memorial, including that of Richard Boyle, Earl of Cork, dating to 1620 and by Alexander Hills, are significant and noteworthy interior elements.

The church has seven entries at the DIA, but all later than this.

Very low L_CAB number might suggest an early date in the range, but here is L_CAB_00792 of Green Park, Youghal, with fountain and bandstand looking new. The NIAH dates them both to c1900. Google maps marks the park as the Easternmost point in Cork. On the other hand, L_CAB_00791 looks to be Nimmo's wooden bridge from before the lattice girder bridge built 1878-82, so no way to tell a date, these are grouped because Youghal.

Sometimes Flickr is amazing! Via [https://www.flickr.com/photos/internetarchivebookimages/] from a 1904 book 'The life and letters of the great Earl of Cork' by Dorothea Townshend. This particular image is by 'Walker &Clerkenwell' but other photos in the book are by 'W. Lawrence, Dublin'.

I recently learned of "what3words", a new mapping app which uses three words for each three meter square on earth. An alternative mapping language. For example today's photo is at - w3w.co/rushes.oaks.inheriting Hint: hit the satellite view button. Interesting?

There are ‘memorials’ and then there are ‘monuments’. Sometimes it’s hard to tell the difference.

He had a lot to say for himself: ' RiCHARDvs Boyle miles, Dominvs Boyle, Baro de Yoghall, VIcecomes Dungarvan, Comes Corcagensis, Dominvs svmmvs hvivs regni Hibernias, thesavrarivs, & de privato concilio dni regis tam Anglias qvam Hibernias, ex antiqvissima Boylorum familia Herefordiensi orivndvs, qvi patrem habvit RoGERVM Boyle armigervm, matrem itidem generosam Ion am Nayleram e solo Cantiano profectam, cvm dvas sibi invicem ivnxisset vxores, primam Ioanam filiam & cohceredem Gvlielmi Appsley armigeri nvlla svperstite prole, alteram proeclare foecvndam, Catharinam natam Domini Galfrida Fentoni eqvitis, regiae maiestati in hoc regno a secretis ; postqvam varios pro repvblica cepisset labores, nee immeritos honores conscendisset, ipse iam septvaginta septem annos natvs, ac mortem indies imminentem expectans sibi & posteris svis hoc posvit monvmentvm sacrvm memorise.'
