Title: Pollard family from Dublin City
Post by: tmp48 on Saturday 13 September 08 12:10 BST (UK)
Looking for any further information on a couple of my Grandfather's siblings:

Thomas Francis Pollard b. 1882,  108 Upr  Dorset St, Dublin, Ireland (Birth Cert)
Francis Pollard b. 1890, 12 Henrietta St, Dublin, Ireland (Birth Cert)
or Francis Pollard b. 1898?

My granddad, James Pollard, his siblings and  parents, Joseph and Margaret Pollard are on the 1911 Dublin census living at Lower Dominick St.
Joseph and Margaret had 13 children born living but only 9  alive in 1911.

Thomas is recorded as being  aged 28 single.   Occupation: Proof Reader.

Francis  is recorded as being aged 13? making his birth year c.1898 which does not tie up with his birth certificate. 

It's possible that Francis Pollard born 1890 was one of the deceased children.

I know of 8 children that did survive, marry and spread there wings to USA and England.  But what happened to Thomas and Francis Pollard?

Any help in solving this mystery would be greatly appreciated. :(

From the 1911 census, there were 13 children born to the marraige and 9 still living in 1911.

Could that account for the ones you are trying to find?

Hi Peter

Yes I have considered that fact.

But I do  know what happened to 7 of the children (including my grandfather) and Thomas and Francis are alive in 1911 so I'm assuming they are the other 2 of the 9 surviving children as stated on the 1911 census.

All of my second cousins I'm in contact with, have no knowledge of what happened to Thomas and Francis Pollard, so if anybody out there somewhere has any infomation on these 2 brothers it would help solve a mystery for us!

Don't know if this helps but I noticed that Pollard is mistranscribed as Polland on the index sheet.

I searched for Polland and found an Annie Pollard, age 38 living in Oriel Street with parents, the Cahills.

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Dublin/North_Dock_Ward/Oriel_St__Lower/12556/

Although listed as married (not widow) there is no sign of her Pollard husband. Could he have been in the army or navy or otherwise away from home?

You might want to request a correction on the index.

Also, I notice that of the 9 children born alive there are only 6 listed in the household, have you found the 3 who are not listed in 1911?

Peter.

Hi Peter

Yes I have the other 3.

Mary Pollard is married to Peter Larrigan and her brother Joseph is living with them at 10 Whitworth Terrace, Drumcondra, Dublin on the 1911 Census.

Alice Pollard the other one who is missing,  is in the USA..she went in 1905.
My Mum used to write to her when I was a child back in the late 50's and I'm in contact with her grandchildren. 
After Alice died Mum used to write to one of her cousins...his children are the ones I'm in contact with now.  So good that our 2 branches of the family has been in contact for all this time!

I've also seen the other family you mentioned with the mistranscribed Pollards.
Mum's name was Kathleen Pollard too so there could well be a connection here.

I might just send off for the marriage certificate of Mrs Annie Pollard nee Cahill to see what that reveals and I will post a message on the Dublin.ie Forums website too.  You never know, I might get some info from there.

Sorry I wasn't able to help, I am quite new to this.

I guess its possible that Francis b.1890 died at less than 8 yrs old and his brother b.1898 was named after him. I have come across that quite a bit in earlier times when infant mortality was running at such a high rate.

Like you, I grew up in Dublin in the mid-late 1950's - its a very different place now!

Hi Peter

My other set of Irish Gt Grandparents Michael & Bridget Brady living in Leeson St in 1911 had 18 children but only 8 alive back then.  Then 2 sons died in 1915/17! 
I can't imagine how they must have felt... to lose so many children.

I didn't grow up in Dublin and I've never visited Dublin either....... one day maybe, before I get much older! 

Mum, her parents and siblings came over to England in 1928 due to Grandpops being unemployed.  Some of her Brady aunts settled in England too..eventually.

I suppose Dublin is like a lot of Cities in England now..all having money spent in re inventing the places.  Some for the better..others are quite souless places. 
They certainly built some awful buildings back in the 60's in England which are now being replaced.  I wonder how long they will last?

Yes, they were tough times back then. With Slum Landlords, General Strike, Lockout, 1916, War of Independence and the Civil War 1910 to 1922 was not a good time to be in Dublin.

I presume you have read James Plunkett's 'Strumpet City'. If not, I would recommend it as a good place to start in getting a good understanding of the social and economic background to Dublin life at that time.

Post by: tmp48 on Monday 15 September 08 22:29 BST (UK)
I remember Mum telling me that often they only had bread and jam to eat when she was a child and their living conditions were awful..no wonder they left.

I haven't heard of the book Strumpet City.  I shall have to remember that and see if I can get hold of a copy.

I am Damian Larrigan My grandfather William Larrigan was your Peter Larrigan brother who married Mary Pollard. Peter is the only man on our family tree way back then we could not trace. I had a marriage cert for him marrying  a Mary pollard no address after marriage but he lived in 6 Henretta street fathers home at time. Thanks for your family. tree I now know what happend to him. He died 3 years after his marriage to Mary pollard with no children. he was one of the oldest sons and cared for his father peter as well until his dad died then he must of got married then. he had 4 other brothers of which 3 had big families. A patrick Larrigan who had 22 children. My granddad William. A thomas. and on and on.  all these sons were born between 1882 to 1898. You mentioned Mountjoy  for Marys address which is strange. Peter Larrigans dad also Peter Larrigan married 2 times. The second lady was a Mary Jane hayden from the same address in mountjoy  from the marriage cert. also one of your peter Larrigans brothers Thomas Larrigan married a Catherine cockburn and one of there children was Leo Larrigan. When Leo Larrigan got married he married a Bernadette Pollard Lived in windyabour Dublin. Not saying this pollard is directly related to  you. IN short My Larrigan family has had two Pollards marriages one 1907sh and  1980sh and the address of Mountjoy is related to my grate grandmother who married my grate grandfather Peter Larrigan of 6 Henrietta st.

I just like to add Your Peter Larrigan calmed on his marriage cert to Mary Pollard that his dad was a Patrick Larigan hotel porter of 6 Henrietta st not peter. The dad of 6 Henrietta st was Peter Larrigan Hotel Porter. Its the same man for some reason a name change as the only other Patrick in existence was his brother who had 22 children.
Patrick Larrigan brother to your Peters Larrigan went to england with his children except 2 who stayed here in ireland 6 of the 22 children were born in england creating all the English Larrigans over there today. All the irish larrigans here in dublin came from your Peter Larrigans brothers. The dad of your Peter Larrigan who married Mary pollard is also Peter and your Peter Larrigans granddad is a Joseph Larrigan believed to come from Athy kildare. We cant prove the kildare Joseph as your Peters grandad but there is a link. I am on Facebook.com and here if I get time to check this site

You said a Francis pollard lived in 12 Henrietta St 6 doors away from my grate granddad Peter Larrrigan in 1890 and one of my Grate grandads (peter) sons Peter  lived in 6 Henrietta st in 1890 as well. And this peter married Mary Pollard 1907sh and she related to that Francis Pollard beside them. Could it be that Mary lived or visited Francis Pollard regularly for her to get to know my related Peter Larrigan very well next door sh. My Grate granddad Peter married twice his first marriage was in 1882 then moved to Henrietta st. but his dad Joseph is a mastery as he died before peters first marriage. but there no records of Josephs death cert or any marriage cert between 1830 to 1882 anywhere. my Grate granddad(Peter)s son Peter  was born 1855.
Just hunting was there ever a Joseph Pollard born about 1820 to 1830 because the streets dorset st Montjoy st and  Domnick st are common places for the larrigans as-well and we have a Christopher Larrigan church st who had a son Patrick larrigan who visited Henrietta st family on occasion stayed there we cant prove by certs they related but they were to be visiting them.  OK Teresa best

Please contact me by my email address..Something odd here about the Larrigans and Pollards.

Francis Pollard was BORN at 12 Henrietta St, Dublin in July 1890.

If you have the marriage certificate of Peter Larrigan & Mary Pollard could you send me a copy Please.  Her father should be Joseph Pollard.  She had a brother Joseph Pollard too!

Hi Jeannie and welcome to RootsChat. If you could give some more details on Margaret and John it would help.

Do you know the approximate births for Margaret and John?
Their date of marriage?
Did you get Hugh's name from a marriage cert?

The more hints you give us the easier it will be to guide you in the right direction.

Joseph Hughes born May 25 1851 Athy co Kildare parents Margaret Larrigan father John Hughes.....birth record

Birth record Margaret Larigan May 30 1822 Killucan co Westmeath
Father Hugh Larigan Mother Eleanor Parkeson
sponsors Michael Larigan Mary Connely

Joseph is my great grandfather.  Have been searching for years. Knew mother's maiden name from Joseph marriage record in Canada, but spelling was not clear.  Larrigan is not a common name, anywhere.  So Margaret's birth record is the only one I've come across.  Family was Roman Catholic. 

I hope this helps...Jeannie

Interesting.

I'm guessing that you found your information for Margaret from the I**F site.

Can I ask you how you made a connection from Joseph b. 1851 in Kildare to Margaret b. 1822 in Westmeath? If it was from the only 3 options offered by http://ifhf.brsgenealogy.com/ I would recommend that you look at the map of counties covered by this site. There are four counties, closer to KIldare than Westmeath, that are missing from their records.

Apologies if I sound negative but I would hate to steer you down the wrong road.

Hello from a Larrigan descendant in the US! We've been searching for our link to Ireland for a long time, because our ancestor James Larrigan left Ireland as a young man and went to Scotland to work as an ironstone miner. We have since learned that he was b. 1834 Co. Wicklow. He married a Scotswoman near Glasgow. Among their Larrigan children, one of their sons Thomas Larrigan (b. 1865) emigrated to the U.S. He died in a coal mining explosion in Colorado in 1896, leaving a wife and three children, one of whom was my grandfather, Thomas Larrigan. We have extensive info on the US Larrigans, but are still working to find the link between the Dublin Larrigans and our James who was born in Wicklow. Damien, I've met your father and he has shared some written info. I'd love to talk more with you.
Meanwhile, I have the following info, if it's helpful for the Pollard/Larrigan searchers:
1911 Census: 10 Whitworth Terrace, Dublin City:
Peter Larrigan, Head, Roman Catholic, 26, Printer Compositor, married 3 years, b. Dublin City
Mary Larrigan, wife, Roman Catholic, 26, b. Dublin City

Hello pstinson:

I'm the daughter of a Larrigan (Frances) who was Thomas' daughter - the Henrietta Street chauffeur.  I've been in Canada (Ottawa) for 20+ years.

You should be aware that my mother's brother (Leo) married a Pollard (Bernadette) from Donnybrook - that would have been in the mid-late 1950s.  I don't know if my Auntie Bernie is one of the Pollards in this stream....

Looking for any further information on a couple of my Grandfather's siblings:

Thomas Francis Pollard b. 1882,  108 Upr  Dorset St, Dublin, Ireland (Birth Cert)
Francis Pollard b. 1890, 12 Henrietta St, Dublin, Ireland (Birth Cert)
or Francis Pollard b. 1898?

My granddad, James Pollard, his siblings and  parents, Joseph and Margaret Pollard are on the 1911 Dublin census living at Lower Dominick St.
Joseph and Margaret had 13 children born living but only 9  alive in 1911.

Thomas is recorded as being  aged 28 single.   Occupation: Proof Reader.

Francis  is recorded as being aged 13? making his birth year c.1898 which does not tie up with his birth certificate. 

It's possible that Francis Pollard born 1890 was one of the deceased children.

I know of 8 children that did survive, marry and spread there wings to USA and England.  But what happened to Thomas and Francis Pollard?

Any help in solving this mystery would be greatly appreciated. :(




I now know that Francis Pollard born 1890 died 23 Aug 1890 aged 5 weeks.  Address 12 Henrietta St, Dublin.

However, there was another son named Francis Dominic Pollard.  Born 2nd Feb 1898 at 27 Royal Canal, Dublin.
So it was him on the 1911 Dublin City census: at home with his parents at Lower Dominick St., aged 13!

I've also recieved the marriage certificate of Margaret Pollard who married Michael Joseph McNulty in 1923.  Michael was aged 30, a Hardware Merchant.  Margaret was aged 20. Address for both Bride & Groom: 69 Eccles St. Dublin.

On the 1939 electoral roll, Michael J & Margaret McNulty are recorded as living at No. 13 Sarsfield Street, Dublin. 



Dublin Mary.....If you can find out  Bernadette Pollard's father's name I will check my Pollard family file and see if there is a family connection.

Title: Re: Pollard family larrigan family
Post by: dlarrigan on Friday 04 June 10 13:53 BST (UK)
:)My grandfather is William Larrigan born 1896 8 Henrietta st lived in cabra dublin after marriage my grate granddad was Peter Larrigan born 1855 in kildare who lived in 8 Henrietta street Dublin after he married he was head family there.

Peter first married in celbrige kildare to a kildare woman and they married in Maynooth church kildare.
Peters dad my g g grandad was Joseph Larrigan born about 1830 from Athy town kildare. I have accounted for most of the larrigans alive today all relating back to my peter of Celbrige Kildare that moved to Dublin.  There is a large West Meath Larrigans that has not been connected to the Kildare and Dublin Larrigans. 

I noticed from your posts a Kathleen Larigan not Larrigan connected to the pollard and hughes families. You said she from Meath and i know there was only 4 meath or west meath larrigan families in 1901  and her father was Hugh Larigan and she married John Hughes kildare It is the connection of any larrigan family in meath making conections by marriage to huges pollards as family friends that important to me because as i said the Dublin larrigans from kildare also married the same kildare Pollards family in Dublin two times in the way as that knew them all there lives living by them. So if the Dublin larrigans were best known by the pollard families and hughes family and the same is with the meath larrigans there must of been some well knowing connection of the meath and kildare and Dublin larrigans to eachother. So little(big) things like that help to trace connections when connections are lost.elsewhere.

So what is this to do with Pollards Well there is a Christopher Larrigan married Ann Moran of church street Dublin who had a son there Patrick Larrigan 1865  who had a son called peter larrigan who married a Mary pollard Dublin. although I cant relate that larrigan family to my peter Larrigan of Henrietta st because he said his dad was patrick not peter but he is recorded living with my grandad Peteroriginally from kildare and his dad Joseph of Athy Kildare the Peter larrigan when he married Mary pollard and is very connected to the 8 Henrietta st as he recorded staying there at his marriage. 

Then there are  pollard family living in 12 Henrietta st that is true they came from kildare about the same time peter larrigan came from kildare and both families ended up living almost next door to eachother in dublin. As well more down the Larrigan family tree there is another larrigan marrying another pollard about 1950. There is a big relationship between the pollard family and the Larrigan family way back then. They seem to be in  Kildare where my larrigans come from then the pollards move to Henrietta st Dublin where all the killdeer Larina's and moved to Dublin and then you have connections of a 12 Henrietta st pollards mixing with the 8 Henrietta st Larina's and a marrage of one peter Larina not of the 8 Henrietta family but related to them well because he recorded living there on his marriage cert to Mary pollard  in 12 Henrietta st Pollard family. This Mary pollard had moved out of 12 Henrietta st to 33 mountjoy square but her mother and father was still in 12 Henrietta st. I believe way back before 1880 it was custom that family's of one name became close relations of another family through a lifetime or even a few generations. Even marrying a few times over the years

Post by: dlarrigan on Friday 27 August 10 20:20 BST (UK)
I just discovered a Larrigan family from west Meath Larrigans. Two rs in the name. A James Larrigan who had a son Peter Larrigan born 1855 same year as my great grandfather Peter was born. The only mismatch is his dad been James Not Joseph.

That James of West Meath had a son Peter and he was born in west Meath 1855 but he had a sister Bridget born in 1859. She was born in Kildare. So this Larrigan family moved from West Meath to Kildare sometime between 1855 and 1859. What this does show that there was west Meath Larrigans moving to Kildare. And my Peter born 1855 was in Kildare when he married. This is a first conformation of relation between Kildare and west Meath. Other lost West Meath Larrigans may have moved to kildare too.

I have no Bert cert to prove that my grate granddad Peter was born in Kildare just married there. This new west Meath 1855 berth could be him (despite father name wrong.) I been putting together the west Meath Larrigans family tree as a result from my old records and newly discovered records of west Meath baptisms records not state berth records.

There is now much more west Meath Larrigan families before 1880 I had not got at all. Despite them all the new families in West Meath still have many missing links between them but when records of Larigans with one r is researched there is one or two links or matches. At least in terms of the places of residences. There are also signs of Larigans with one r in the name moving to Kildare from west Meath aswell making it difficult to link the families in Meath.

Kathleen from Kildare was named as Larigan with one r in her name and she married a Hughes. Her father Hugh Larigan. I wonder if this Larigan family was one of the Larigans that moved from west Meath to Kildare. I know thet did. I also wonder now about my research on west Meath Larrigans having matches with the Single rs Larigans as if they were of the  same or extra  families relations,

I hoping this post will supersede my much older post I made where I said I only knew of 4 larrigan families in west Meath after 1880.  My regards to The Pollard family related to my grate grandfather Peter Larrigans lost son Peter Larrigan who married Mary Pollard.

What is uncovering is important because there is a lost Larrigan family living in England and Australia  that is related to a Francis P Larrigin of Ireland and there is a Francis born in west Meath related some how to the 1955 Peter and a large American Larrigin family related to co Wicklow and to a James Larrigan born 1834 in Wicklow who father was Thomas who must have been born about 1800. However there must have been many Larrigans in west Meath before 1820 and I suspect that Thomas was one of them and he moved to Wicklow about 1830

Don't know if this free website is any use to any of you...

http://www.irishgenealogy.ie/index.html

It contains loads of BDM church Records RC & Church Of Ireland

Some, but not all have the actual copy of the church record!

I've found loads of my Brady family's baptism on there for Co Dublin.

The website is being updated continually, so well worth checking it out from time to time.

Re- Mary Margaret Pollard born 25th Mar 1884, at 2 St Mary’s Place, Dublin who married Peter Larrigan
a Printer of 6 Henrietta Street, Dublin

Several people on Ancestry have Mary Larrigan (nee Pollard) died at Loughlinstown Hospital on 22 Nov 1965, but I can't find it! 

I have this: Mary Larrigan Died 22 Nov 1966, aged 82 Widow of a Printer at St. Coluncellis Hospital. Last Address: 28 Brookfield Place, Blackrock, Co.Dublin. The Hospital Registered the death.
Registered in Rathdown. Co. Dublin

Which is the correct death for her?

Saves others using their time looking to find what has already been found.

"Several people on Ancestry have Mary Larrigan (nee Pollard)...."  aaaaargggh!   enough said!!

Death Certs don't give (nee whoever! ) so it looks like one has copied from another, etc etc and now have an Apple tree that also grows Oranges!

Yes that's what I thought too!!!  I've messaged 2 people to-day who have the other details and asked them where they got the details from.  Not had replies yet though.
