Leonard Henry Leader
« on: Friday 04 June 04 14:32 BST (UK) »
I am looking for information about my gggggrand father.

His name was Leonard Henry Leader, he was born in Cork in 1818 and he trained as a barrister in London and Dublin.

He worked as a barrister in Dublin.   One address I have for him is Holles Street.

He had one daughter, Selina Leader.   There is no mention of her mother.   I would love to find out who she was or indeed any information about him and Selina.

Hi Cathy

Sorry we haven't been able to help you so far on this one. 

Have you made any progress,  or do you have any further details that could help someone to find what you are looking for?

Look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes

Hi,

There is a book with all legal people's details when they entered. Called the Kings Inn Admission Papers. 1723 - 1867 by Phair and Sadleir. This should have him.

Also the Dublin  directories would have an address. The 1851 Dublin census too?

has leonard henry as a barrister trinity term 1842.

One you have an address you can find the nearest church (Anglican?) and check any surviving parish registers.
