Ireland / Catholic marriage dispensation
« on: Sunday 09 August 15 10:41 BST (UK)  »
Hello.  Great to have the RC microfilms online with NLI and I note on browsing a 3&3 & 4&4 dispensation in my brethern, 1850s Kerry.  Does this mean they were 2nd cousins and 3rd cousins through 2 different lines?  One of the two would also have been underage, I'd have thought this would also warrant a dispensation but that doesn't seem to be referenced?  Thanks for your thoughts.  J

Does anyone know to where specifically this placename refers?  My great great grandfather reputedly married a lady from here.  All thoughts welcome.

Dublin / Pub in the Liberties
« on: Thursday 30 October 14 09:20 GMT (UK)  »
My gg gf Joseph Burke b1842 sold his interest in a farm in Wicklow in 1901 after his kids had grown, and when his wife Eliza died in 1902, they were living in 40 Meath Street.  Family tradition is that he bought and ran a pub around Dean Street or Patrick Street in the Liberties but may have lost it shortly afterwards.  Would love to find out what premises he owned/rented and what happened here - episode would likely have been sometime between 1902 and 1910 as he was awol for the 1911 census and described as a Corporation Watchman in 1914.  Not familiar with best route to investigate this, I've looked at Thoms and drawn a blank.  Is there any register of licencees, other directory or anything else relevant available, or do I need to go to the Valuations office?  Any thoughts greatly appeciated.
