I dont have any phone books, but Thom's directory of 1949 mentions the following two names for the address :

  78 Drumcondra Road, Lower
   Wm. Gallagher, St. Joseph's
   Mrs. M.J. Gallagher, nurse, S.C.M.

Hello,
I was born there in late 1952 and have nurse Gallagher as witness to my birth.
What's your interest in the location?

Hi There, I sourced and looked up Nurse Gallagher's phone number in the 1962 phone directory. The number was listed in her name and was:42498.

I'm interested in any information on her, e.g. who did she work for?
where did the babies born in 78 Lr. Drumcondra Road go?
How did girls know of Nurse Gallagher?

I'd be most grateful for any information re: the above.

regards,
Martina

Information from the Dept Health:

It was a private nursing home run by Mrs Gallagher. It closed in 1962.

Given that I was born there at the close of 1965, it must have been after '65.

The son of Nurse Gallagher is still living in the same house. I wrote to him some years ago, asking about records. He informed me that after his mother died. All records were handed to the HSE. However they say they don't gave them

On further research I have discover at least 3 of these homes were working together to hide records. Nurse Gallagher, Nurse Farrell and a home in Cabra Park. I have yet to find the name of the nurse that run that one.
