To make our work a little harder the directory listed as below spelling the surname
"Loughlin" (sic).

Guy's Directory 1875/76.

GUN MAKERS. Loughlin Michael (gun factory, lawn tennis & cricket bat manufacturer), North Main Street.

Michael Loughlan was, as so many artisans of their day, multi skilled and in his case operating in three differing market places. We have no definite dates for this operation and research is ongoing.

We are always interested in any material on this Youghal company.
