Looking Back: Building Bishop Rogan, and Gussie's Barber Shop

These Looking Back photographs were provided by Shelly Behan, writes Brian Byrne. One is a group of men working on the building of Bishop Rogan Park, which includes members of Shelly's own family.

The other, below, is one I took myself back in the late 1970s, of Gussie Gannon cutting a young lad's hair in the barber shop located in the previous row of houses on the Milemill Road. I've often wondered who the young lad is, but unfortunately in both cases the photographs are copies of copies, and though I did improve them, it's hard to get better definition. 

Any names for either would be helpful. Maybe the young lad, who would be now aged around 50, remembers me taking the picture?
