Hi Cariboo, basically I was asked by a friend to look into their family Tree, when the person told me her Grandfather's name and where he had lived I knew I was going to have an interesting search on my hand's so here goes regards your enquiry.
From Various sources including Church records/newpaper articles, etc and along with sourcing Birth -marriage-deaths certs from the GRO Offices in Werburgh st along with input from my good friends on this brilliant site I came up with several lead's.
My Friends Great Great Grandfather was Edward Poole d-o-b circa 1860.
His Parents Charles and Charlotte nee Smyth.
Charles was born 10-4-1833, he marries Charlotte Smyth 21-12-1854 (I have marriage cert) which gives his Father as Fredrick Poole who is a 'Painter'..the address is 140 Grt Britain St.
I found that Mary Drake was his mother.
Fredrick was born circa 1800 and the couple went on to have several children (as you are already aware of, from your previous post) including Fredrick William 1826-1895 father of Joseph,Fredrick who remarried when Mary died in 1865.
During my search I came across a ref in 'Wilsons Dublin Directory' Merchant and Trader 1801 of Edward Poole Painter and Glazier 28 Aungier St Dublin who was born 1766 and died in 1838.
Now noting the recurrence of the name Edward right through the Poole family and the fact that the whole family apart from Fredrick ( a Tailor) as late as the 1911 census were involved in the House-painting business I think its fair to assume Edward was his Father.
Fredrick also named his 2nd born son Edward.
Regard's the Lamie link.
Sophia married William and they had a daughter Elizabeth born on the 23april 1881.
the address given is 18 Crampton Court.
During or before Joe's Trial Sophia goes to England with Elizabeth.
Lamie is then brought to England where he is basically used as a 'supergrass' giving evidence in Liverpool and Scotland at the trials of Fenian 'Dynamitar's'..he then as far as I can see disappears off the face of the earth.
So then I start searching for his family.
I start with the surname 'Lamie's' on the 1901 Census and one intersting match comes up.
1901.. 4.2 Sth King St has a Elizabeth Lamie aged 50 who is a widow living with her daughter 'Elizabeth' aged 21...(William lamies daughter was born 1881?)
1911.. 4.3 Sth King St Elizabeth Lamie aged 64 widow is a newsagent.
also at the address is her daughter Elizabeth who has married a James Malone,they married in June 1902..SO I purchased their Marriage cert and on it she states her Father as WILLIAM LAMIE.
I think its fair to assume that Sophia had returned to Dublin and changed her christian name to protect herself and family from further 'publicity'.
