Advice on a Dublin 1872 death lookup?
« Reply #1 on: Saturday 06 December 08 14:36 UTC (UK) »
Hi Christopher,

I appreciate it may not be you but equally I recognise you as an expert in many res dubliensis and hope you may be able to advise or if not point me i the right direction ;-)

I have just today learned that one of my 'brick walls' is falling down in that I am told John Murly died and was buried in Dublin in 1872.

He was an Englishman and had acted as H B M Consular agent in various Black Sea and Danube ports before. I have no idea why he was there!

Any guidance would be appreciated

Hello Colin,

Ireland wasn't a Foreign or Commonwealth country so John Murly's reason for being in Dublin may have been related to his knowledge of ports.

The history of Dublin Port dates from 1707 and the Port Archives are held at the National College of Ireland. 

The other possibility is that he had family connections in Dublin.

Ok. Good point, thanks Chris.

He was also a Merchant dealing in his family's product 'Coker Canvas' - the whitest of sailcloth made in Somerset! While he was resident in Bristol in 1871 he had an office in London too - "Bullock, Murly & Son Eastcheap London - Sail & Canvas".

Hi Colin,

John could have been in Dublin on business but that leaves the question ... why was he buried in Dublin?

'...Aye there's the ...' question!

A death Certificate might tell, I suppose.

I dont know if you've already seen this but he appears to be listed in Slaters commercial direcory of 1870 in the 'Contractors' section :

Honse & Gardner [government & railway store],
22 Lwr.Ormond quay,
& at 9 Oswald st. Glasgow,
& 26 Deagate, Manchester—
John Murly, district manager

no sign of any other Murly entries in that year..

No, Shane, I hadnt seen that and thank you.

It gives me a wider idea of what he was doing. But it seems to be a come down after being Her Britannic Majesty's Consular Agent in Moldova and then Bessarabia... doesnt it?
