Leslie McKeague of Urcher, Bailieborough, who published “Bailieborough, A Pictorial Past”, provided photos 1 & 2 below. They are probably photos of the shop and pub at Cormeen owned by a Finegan family in the 1930s – 1940s. Photos 3 & 4 show the shop and pub at Tierworker as it looked in the 1990s. A much smaller version of the Tierworker shop and pub was owned by a family named Finegan in the 1940s. It is possible that the Finegans at Tierworker and Cormeen were related.
