Ireland / Re: Searching businesses in Dublin - 1930s
« on: Yesterday at 16:43 »
Maybe the business did not operate for very long, at least that address ?

I managed to locate Lord Edward Street Dublin in slightly later directory listings, 1936 and 1940, still no sign

Many of the names and business seem to carry forward through the years, only gap seems to be number 13, shown as a wire works in 1931 and vacant in several later listings, might be where your Doherty was located ?

are you sure about the street and years?

I eventually located Lord Edward street in directories for 1931 and 1935 on AskaboutIreland website but no sign of Patrick Doherty or a Cycle and Radio shop

I located one possible child to this couple, baptised in Woodford parish 8th September 1826, parents John Donohoe and Anne, part of the register looks damaged, mother's surname might be Hickey?

I believe her husband was John Donohue, citied in Tithe Records 1854 in Coolfin, plot no. 6

I think that should possibly read Griffith's Valuation dated 1856, the Tithe records are much earlier.

There seems to be two townlands named Coolfin in Co. Galway on e in the north past Gort and a second one west of Portumna near the village of Abbey - this one seems to fit the valuation and is in Ballynakill civil parish, Leitrim barony. The Catholic parish would likely be Ballynakill or Woodford both are on the NLI website and can be searched on FindMyPast and Ancestry, the first has baptisms back to 1839, the second back to 1821, neither parish recorded deaths.

Looks like Francis and Mary Anne married in Scotland as there's an index match for this combination of names on ScotlandsPeople, 1877 reference 644 / 1 / 14 in Bridgeton district (Glasgow). Scottish certs are quite detailed and include name of both mother and father for the bride and groom, you need to buy a few credit to access the full information.

A further search for births to this couple in Scotland shows an possible daughter Annabella born 1886 at St Rollox district (also Glasgow)

Probable match for the birth of Patrick - 25th March 1878 at Killyclogher, Omagh registration district, parents names match the ones you have.

Checking street listings on the Lennon Wylie directory website and the Irish census it looks like Rockville street was only completed in around 1911, the 1910 directory only shows houses on one side of the street. First sign I located of a McCabe is a John McCabe, a painter at no. 13 in 1924
