Pilgrimages- Since 1902, when Irish pilgrims travelled from Inchicore to Lourdes and Rome, in remarkable numerical strength, despite the cost of travel in those days, there have been many such pilgrimages. A total of 2,187 pilgrims, including 363 from Dublin took part in the National Pilgrimage in 1913 and in 1949 the First Dublin Diocesan Pilgrimage took place.

A small election of baptisms dating from 1802 through 1804 for what seems to be St. Paul's Arran Quay are available on FamilySearch - see:  Batch C70112-1

Quaker records (from late Rootschat member Christopher)

Amongst manuscripts preserved at Meeting House of the Religious Society of Friends, Eustace Street, Dublin, are six collections of Wills and Inventories from which Abstracts have been prepared. These Wills are now of exceptional value because of the destruction in 1922 of practically all the original Wills in the Record Office.

Quakers in Monkstown
There's a Quaker meeting house in Monkstown which has been in use for more than 170 years.

Christian Brothers (from late Rootschat member Christopher)

The Christian Brothers founded by Blessed Edmund Rice (1762-1844) born at Callan, Co. Kilkenny. All his activities in field of education were illegal in eyes of those in power in Ireland at that time. Edmund was concerned for poor, mainly boys and young men, as he realised education vitally important to their survival. The vast majority of members of Catholic faith in Ireland at that time were prevented from being educated and as result most of them unable to participate in social and political progress of the country.

In 1812, The Most Rev. Dr. Murray, Archbishop of Dublin, established Christian Brothers   community in the city. A second community founded 1818 and in 1907 there were ten communities in Dublin, educating more than 6000 Pupils. These consisted of large number of primary and secondary schools as well as orphanages, industrial schools, and large deaf and dumb institution. I've managed to find two ...
The O’Connell School, North Richmond Street founded 1829
Synge Street C.B.S. founded 1864.
