Slaters 1846 Commercial Directory - Tralee

[emmpicanb]

Slaters 1846 Commercial Directory Tralee: Does someone have access to this Directory, please?  Would you please have a look for Daniel Shea, tailor in the Tralee area?  As far as I know, Daniel's father was Timothy Shea, (mother Margaret Spillane), and may well have been a tailor as well.  Daniel was born in Tralee in 1815, convicted of cow stealing on 17 July 1837 and sent to Australia, where he gained his Conditional Pardon and continued his tailoring profession until he died in NSW in 1879.

Thank you

Shane, Was there only one version of Slaters, ie the 1846 version?  If there was one in about 1836, it would probably show Daniel still working in the area as a tailor, before his conviction in 1837 and transportation to Australia in 1838.

I have later versions of Slaters but nothing earlier than 1846 - not sure when the directory was started, or which editions survived. I have an ealier Pigots directory for 1824 - but the version I have only covers Leinster..
