John Cofield’s Photo of the Week: “Ireland’s Irish Pub”
No, it was not The Gin, or The Warehouse, it was Ireland’s! Seemingly straight out of a Boston neighborhood, the bar found a long-remembered home on an Oxford side street. Chief Tidwell and his daughters left many memories for locals and Ole Miss alums as well.
John Cofield grew up in Oxford. John is the son of renowned University photographer, Jack Cofield. His grandfather, J. R. "Colonel" Cofield, was William Faulkner's personal photographer, and for decades was Ole Miss annual photographer. Four generations of the Cofield family have contributed to Oxford's pictorial history.
