Trove is full of Mannix stuff, but I have had no luck finding a dinner with the Irish President in the 1930s or 1940s. Yet. Daniel Patrick Mannix (4 March 1864 – 6 November 1963) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Mannix adb.anu.edu.au/biography/mannix-daniel-7478

Mannix paid a controversial visit to Ireland in 1925, and never visited again. O'Kelly was in America at the time. I wonder if this dinner was in America, when Mannix was on his way to Rome and then Ireland?

Mannix was also at the Eucharistic Congress in Chicago in 1926.

I must delete a bunch of stuff: I confused John J. O'Kelly (sinn fein envoy to US and briefly Australia) with Sean T. O'Kelly (also envoy in the US, but not until Oct 1924).

A suggestion - This catalogue here www.militaryarchives.ie/collections/online-collections/bu... mentions: Photograph - Group at dinner given in honour of Archbishop Daniel Mannix, Melbourne, Grand Hotel , Paris, October, 1920; names on back. Given that we have two tricolours in the picture, might this be a photo of that dinner in Paris?

Here is a letter from Sean T O'Kelly - then based in Paris - dated 28th April 1921 describing Mannix's dinner in Paris. He seems to have stopped in Paris going to and returning from Rome. repository.library.georgetown.edu/handle/10822/1067201 This places that dinner on the 14 April 1921 www.rte.ie/centuryireland/index.php/articles/archbishop-m...

There was an australian John Meagher, businessman, politician, a devout Catholic, originally Irish, but he died in 1920. I wonder if this John V. Meagher was one of his 5 sons living at the time of his death. This geneology page suggests not, son John is John Patrick. Wait! the Indo says John P! That is almost certainly the man.
