Just as there seem to be two Brother Kierans, so there were two – or maybe three – Brother James at Beulah Hill.
The brother J in this photo is definitely not Brother James Ryan (ex-Ipswich) who has been previously definitely identified on this site.
But the photos of Beulah Hill teachers may be of interest to Old Boys.

That particular Brother James is Brother James Connolly aka Wilfred. He died a year or so ago. I came across him at St Peter’s and remember him being firm yet fair.
Thanks. I was pretty sure it wasn’t James Ryan
