I think it looks more like Aungier as well. Aughrim was the other street in the directory that I looked at, but talking about the lost dot - there is one above and between Aungier & Street, and same thing over the Annie - the dot is above the n next to the i in Annie.
Thanks Shane - much appreciated.

« on: Sunday 19 December 10 23:15 GMT (UK) » Thank You Shane. Really good that you have done that for me. Wow - that was quick.I had trouble in deciphering the Street name Aungier from the Cert.I have, that's why I was looking at possibility of Aughrim as well, so that's great. Also Robert Potter's address of Bell Villa on Heytesbury Street was a bit hard to read, I had read it as Dale Villa. Now that has solved both of those for me. Thank You so much. I really appreciate your help.

Here goes with my Mathews Family. I would really appreciate if someone could please help me with this.
I currently have three marriage certificates with my 4xgreat-grandfather HENRY MAXWELL MATHEWS (gentleman) named as father. These three marriages all took place in Dublin. John Gibbons Mathews is my 3xgreatgrandfather.
1845-11 July. JOHN GIBBONS MATHEWS (Sergeant of Lancers, Residence at time of marriage- Nottingham - to MARY JANE FLEMING ( daughter of DAVID FLEMING,Officer Royal Irish Artillery
This marriage took place in the Donnybrook Church in the Parish of Donnybrook, City of Dublin
1851-19 April SARAH ANNIE MATHEWS, residence at time of Marriage, 47 Aungier or maybe Aughrim) to JOHN POTTER Esq. son of ROBERT POTTER, Clerk in Holy Orders. This marriage took place in the Parish Church of St. Peter, City of Dublin.
1865 -30 Dec. PHOEBE MATHEWS, residence at time of Marriage,31 Synge Street to
William Coote, shopkeeper,usual residence Moate Co, Westmeath, son of George Coote, farmer. This marriage took place in St Kevin's Church in the Parish of St. Peter, City of Dublin.
From all these details and addresses I have been unable to find any more info for HENRY MAXWELL MATHEWS or his two daughters. Street directories have not turned up anything for me, although, having said that I have an entry in Pettigrew & Oulton Almanac Dublin Directory for 1842 for a MRS Henry Maxwell Mathews, living in Blackrock, Carysfort Avenue but I have no idea where to look next, trying to track birth & marriage for Henry.
Anyone have any ideas for me please?? I've run out!! Thank You so much.

Dublin / MATHEWS in Dublin/New to this board
« on: Saturday 18 December 10 23:38 GMT (UK) » Hi, I'm Jeanne (Mathews) Bell, from NZ. I am winding my way through Mathews familky postings. I'm researching my Mathews family, which is my paternal direct line of descent. I've been stuck in Ireland for quite some time, a marriage 1845, with Henry Maxwell Mathews, Gentleman. of Dublin named as the father of John Gibbons Mathews, a Sergeant of Lancers. So that makes Henry Maxwell Mathews Esq. my 4xgreat grandfather. I also have more children for him. I will post more about my Mathews later, when I have a more specific enquiry, but probably many more than one!! LOL - But right now I have to go to a christening - no, not another Mathews, but there is a new one on the way!!
In the meantime, I have found an interesting site that I thought some of you may find informative. You may possibly already know of it, but lots of Irish Mathews information there to while away the hours!! Hope you find it helpful!
