Welcome to RootsChat, Dlandon  :)

 
The only record of the Landons' residence at 15 Marino Crescent is on my late Grandfather's birth certificate.  He (Laurence) was born in 1909, but, for reasons unknown, his birth was not registered until 1921.  The birth certificate clearly gives 15 Marino Crescent as the residence of Henry and Amelia in July 1921.
 

Indeed it does......here's the link.
Alexander Laurance Landon born 19 April 1909 at 17 Richmond hill, Cork.    MMN Laurance
Registered by Amelia Landon (mother) on 18 July 1921. Her address 15 Marino Crescent, Clontarf, Dublin.

That's really helpful - thank you! - the text is identical to that on the copy of the birth certificate I have.

But I can't find record anywhere else of their residence ar 15 Marino Crescent and it seems odd given how tense the situation was at the time. I also thought that Catherine Boland was a tenant of 15 Marino Crescent and that it was rented from a Mr Jennings - this is what is stated in a biography of Harry Boland. Any further information on other residents or the living arrangements at 15 Marino Crescent would be greatly appreciated.
