Telephone directory 1950

[lc1718]

Does anyone know what information they have in UCD and is it available to the public?

I suppose the Gallagher family owned the house if the son is still living there, so maybe it was run as a private business? If it was then someone had to pay for the service, I wonder if it was the state or the church - any thoughts anyone?

Yes the nurse bought the house, before that she lived around the corner I have the address dome where.

I was reading this thread yesterday and had a look in newspaper archives for both addresses - there is very little but did get the impression that they were private run business. Nurse Farrell in NCR sued a patient for payment for instance I'll look them up again in the morning and post what exists if it can be of any use to you guys - if you can post the Cabra Park address I'll check that as well.
On the Rotunda records - they are with the NA but are Closed and can only be consulted with written permission of the hospital. The files they hold themselves are also closed to everyone .

I went to CBra Park karst week to gave a look when I was in Dublin. 7 Cabra Park dud not look large enough for a nursing home. However 1 Cabra Pk did and it was called St Joseph's . I was also told by the adopted son if the Farells that he saw paper work from number 1. But there were so many if them out there and no one will tell us anything. Any help would be appericated.

Strangely enough i cant find No 1 or No 7 Cabra Park on register of electors though the numbers seem  to be all over the place.

Pearse St. Liabary, who hold newspaper/journal archives, advised me that it should be possible to access UCD nurse archives.

Another place worth looking for verification of ownership is The Registary of Deeds 01-670-7500.
