Perhaps you would be interested in adding this photo of M'Clorys Lake Hotel to your collection. The picture shows some of the McClory family standing in front with my father, William McClory, on the right.  He was born in Loughbrickland in 1892 and left Ireland for Boston in 1910.  Three sisters and three brothers all left Ireland in the years before 1913 and one brother immigrated to Scotland.
