Old Dublin streets - McCalls cottages rathmines
« on: Monday 11 December 23 10:32 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone
New to rootchat so I hope I’m posting in the right area. I’m researching my family and an address on my grandmothers birthcert is McCalls cottages. I know they lived in rathmines, although doesn’t state McCalls cottages are in rathmines. They may have moved . I can’t locate or see any history on these cottages. Any ideas where I could find information?

Welcome to RootsChat  :)

Have you tried to find McCall's Cottages on the OSi National Townland and Historical Map Viewer?

https://osi.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=bc56a1cf08844a2aa2609aa92e89497e

What year was your grandmother born and what was her Registration District in Dublin?

Can you attach a URL link for her birth record?

Thanks

There is a McCalls Cottages in the census
http://census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Dublin/Fitzwilliam/McCalls_Cottages/
Now where would Fitzwilliam DED be?

There are deaths in the newspapers for McCalls Cottages Portobello Harbour

Portobello Harbour is in Fitzwilliam DED so looks good so far.

A licence application in 1994 The Barge at 42 Charlemont St and 32 Charlemont Mall in the parish of St Peter’s Dublin part of the lands of St Pulcres otherwise St Sepulchres and formerly known as McCalls Cottages.

Hi
Thank you for
Responding.
Her record is here:
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1918/01281/1531094.pdf
Byrnes.

There is indeed a family of byrnes in mccalls cottages but names don’t seem to
Match.
I’m Confused as I was always led to believe the cottage was in rathmines too. Maybe they moved after this census then.

Thanks for the your help! Never thought of searching by addresses. And thanks for link to the maps.

Regards
