The family did not move from Gloucester St to Sean McDermott St it was the same Street and was renamed in 1933 to honour Sean MacDiarmada Irish patriot who was executed in 1916

dathia,

A great video, which I have never seen before.
There were plenty of my relatives living in this area and possibly in the video too.

What an amazing find, I found it very interesting to see how they were on that street. Thank you for showing me this and telling me about the family not actually moving from the road, but a road change of name.
Your detective work is much appreciated!
