Hi Ronnie,
I am located in South Dublin, near Goatstown... so not that far from you.
Samuel is not the only one of my ancestors that Edward or Henrietta may have bumped into. My Fitzsimon (and Doyle and Cantwell) ancestors were also from Bray, and they ran various businesses in, and near the town, including a cab business in the main street and beside the station.
I'll keep an eye out for anything on the CG station or Edward, and will let you know if I find anything.
I've a copy of the ADM record for Bray, unfortunately it only covers up to about 1862. have you seen this or do you want me to arrange a copy for you ?
Shane

Dear Shane
Goatstown: very close indeed, as these things go.
I would appreciate a copy of the ADM record for 1862, thanks.
My mother's family also originate from Bray in the mid 19th century. Her maiden name is ORR and my gg grandfather James ORR was a gunsmith in Bray. He is buried with his father William ORR and probably his stepmother Harriet in the old St. Paul's Church cemetery on the Main Street (opposite the Royal Hotel). He died aged 24 in 1861 and his widow Elizabeth (nee SMITH) may have emigrated with two of her children to North America after placing one son, my great grandfather George Samuel ORR (who became deaf at age 2) in the Claremont Institution for the Deaf in Glasnevin in May 1866, when he was aged 5. George Samuel ORR was 18 months old when his father James died.
So if you come across any Bray ORR's or SMITH's in your research, please let me know. I'll keep my eyes open for HODGES, FITZSIMON, DOYLE and CANTWELL too.
Kind regards
Ronnie

some Orr directory listing for the Bray area, in case you have not already seen them :
Slater's 1846
Richard Orr , Esq. Bray Cottage (Gentry & clergy section)
Thom's 1852
William Orr, locksmith, Little Bray
Thom's 1863
James Orr, gunmaker, Castle st, Bray (*) William Orr, locksmith &c, Little Bray
Slater's 1870
William Orr , gunsmith, Castle st
* the directories can be a little bit slow with revisions in some areas on occasion, which could account for the entry for James appearing in 1863...

Dear Shane
Thanks for the Orr info. Most kind of you. I imagine the William ORR (locksmith) was the father of James ORR (gunmaker) but I'll have to find proof positive. As for the Richard ORR in the gentry and clergy section, his is a name I hadn't come across before.
Kind regards
Ronnie
