My sister and I used to visit my Grandmother's family in Ballycastle in the the early 1950s.
I'm trying to identify my relatives who are in this early 1950s photo which I believe was taken outside 28 Glentaisie Drive, Ballycastle.
My grandmother was Ann McAuley born 2/12/1877 to Charles McAuley(blacksmith in Knocknacarry).
On the back of the the photo is 'at Aunty Kate's'.
Does anyone recognise anyone in the photograph?
Is the old man in the photo Charles D McAuley who was the blacksmith in Knocknacarry?
If so, which of the women in the photo is his wife Kate (nee McLaughlin). And is the other woman in the photo his sister in law Maggie (McAuley).
The link to the photo is here:-

If you haven't already done so, it might be worthwhile asking the Ballycastle Chronicle if they would be willing to put the picture and enquiry in one of their editions:

The man on the left Sandy Coyle, and his son Charles at the back. The lady with glasses is his wife Kathleen McAuley and her sister Margaret McAuley is seated with the child. They all lived at that address and we're indeed related to Charles Mcauley as I used to visit Mary McAuley, Charles cousin as a child.
