John Kavanagh: Dublin Metropolitan Police
James Kavanagh: Dublin Metropolitan Police
They were born around mid to late 1830's to mid 1840's.

Another brother Joseph Kavanagh, word has it he went to the UK and then onto the US.

Also looking for brothers of my Great Grandfather James Kavanagh Rathpierce, Ballyfad

Thomas Kavanagh flour Miller in Dublin
Charlie Kavanagh, Miller Alexander Warf, Dublin
Christopher Kavanagh also Miller Alexander Warf, Dublin

Again these were born late 1830’s to mid 1840’s

Guess it was exciting times when these two Kav clans met up on a night out on the town.

Any help here would be grateful

Kind Regards

Seasons Greetings to you, John G,

I posted the message below on the Wexford board earlier in the year. Wexford Kavanagh's move to Dublin 1850s

I have borrowed Jim Herlihy's book "The Dublin Metropolitan Police. A Complete Alphabetical List of Officers and Men, 1836-1925" from the library. I see you have both a James Kavanagh and John Kavanagh from Gorey,
Co. Wexford born around mid 1830s to 1840s. I hope you will accept slightly earlier dates
as there are only two James Kavanaghs shown as being born in Gorey.
James Kavanagh DMP 4436 born 1829 Gorey
James Kavanagh DMP 4509 born 1829 Gorey
The same problem arises with John..again there were two born in Gorey
John Kavanagh DMP 5540 born 1835 Gorey
John Kavanagh DMP 6536 born 1838 Gorey


What source did you use to find Charlie, Christopher and Thomas were flour millers?
Did they own a flour milling business or were they employed by a miller?

Hi christopher

long time no speak !  I was wondering if you could look in the book for a relative of mine that I am told of.  His name was Robert Blaney, I am told he was a policeman in Dublin, he was born in wexford but moved to Dublin with his sister around 1912.  Do not know how true it is as its something that was passed down that Robert and my Grandfather were at loggerheads because of the strikes, my grandfather was a tram driver and I am told that he got into a bit of trouble when the riots started because of the stikes, its all oral family history but would make a lot of sense as to why my Grandfather was not accepted by my Grandmothers family.

Hope I dont come across as cheeky in this request ....

Don't know if these are connected to your Kavanaghs?

Hi Chippy

I've made good progress on my great grand uncle James Kavanagh.

James married Ellen Cullen dau of Myles & Winifred Cullen of # 4 Harry Street on the 13 SAep 1874 at St. Andrews R.C. Church, Dublin. They had four children that I know of; Catherine b. 1876, Mary Ellen b. 1877, Margaret b. 1880 and Mary E. b.1882 d 1948.

Mary E. married Henry Napier and had four children.

Cheers
John G.

Hi Dathai

Thank you so much for the message ! I had no idea of the police connection apart from rumours that Robert 1892 had been a policeman but then was contradicted and family say he was a security man at the museum in Dublin. I recently found out that he had married in Wexford but left his wife and moved to Dublin where my Mom remembered him on trips to the natural museum and saw him working there. Looking at the records you sent it would explain his resignation at that time maybe to leave for Dublin for some reason unknown. I had no idea that his father was also a policeman. I am now busy looking for him in the records also, I note that he was born In Wicklow. I also didn't know the name of Robert 1892 wife. Again thank you so much for the information its much appreciated.  :)
