James LANIGAN- Publican.......
« on: Wednesday 22 August 18 07:20 BST (UK) »
I am interested in the James LANIGAN who was transferring his publican's license in 1891 as advertised in the Auckland Star.

https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/AS18910403.2.3.8?end_date=31-12-1900&phrase=2&query=james+lanigan&start_date=01-01-1890

Can anyone ascertain how long he had held a publican's license?

Hi Mckha489,

I am able to identify the James Lanigan you have found. However I do not know if he was one and the same as the above-mentioned publican.

I hadn’t ever heard of the Lanigans and after looking at this I feel I should have! Especially Pierce.
Anyway, here in 1887 the licensee is someone else

Thank you. I wonder if anyone has access to the electoral rolls?

Yes, Pierce Lanigan was well known, in particular with the building of the Calliope dock in Devonport, Auckland. He had two brothers, John & James who were in partnership with him at various times. Whether James was the publican is what I am trying to establish. I do wonder if there may have been another man of the same name, just to complicate the search.
