I found some info on the family (heads up to u/Reasonable_Bid3311 who was wondering about them). This is courtesy of the National Library of Ireland’s flickr account:
It is all but confirmed that this is indeed the shopkeeping Walsh family of County Kilkenny. While I have mapped the image to the Poole Studio premises in Waterford (where it was undoubtedly taken), Niall McAuley recons they lived above their shop in Mullinavat.

Having taken some time going through the civil records, sharon.corbet also suggests that those pictured include:  Ellen Walsh (née Mullins b.~1876),  John Walsh (b.~1872),  Mary Walsh (b. 13 Nov 1910),  Thomas Walsh (b. 8 Aug 1912),  John Walsh (b. 23 Sep 1914),  Richard Walsh (b. 12 Nov 1915), and  Ellen aka ‘Baby’ Walsh (b. after 1916).  Â

The mother would have been 43 in this photo; the father, 47.
Very well dressed, prosperous looking family for the time.
