Then to complicate research not everyone used North or South and the numbers were often mixed up.
Jem Jenkins referred to your advert name as 1b.

The island may have been Begerin. It was incorporated into the North Slobs with reclamation in the late 1800s. The parish would be Ardcavan within the current Castlebridge Parish.

Tony like all firemen lived in Davitt Road. I cannot be sure who his father was but Richard was the most commonly commented upon name that I recall.
As stated earlier one claim to fame was the fact that he drove the first motor fire engine in about 1935.
He was a fore man in Wexford Corporation from 1957 until his death in 1970.
I am attaching a picture of him with some others at Carrig. The date on the picture was 1933.
The vocal ability appears to have come down in our side of the family to Joe's son and daughter Peter and Peggy (both passed away) they usually only sang at family weddings. The Old Bog Road was a particular party piece. My mother Katie was a shier person.
