Hi Marg This is not exactly the information you seek but my grandmother told me that the produce store owned by her father James Service and his brother William was on the site later occupied by Kinsellas funeral parlour - it is possible as the family lived in the area that they later used the services it provided.

Thanks Marg The James Service you mention is another person bearing this reasonably common name. My great grandfather lived at " Grillagh'' Carrington Street Randwick ( I have a photo of the house ) and his brother lived in a group of terraces he built for his family in Rae Street Randwick - they emigrated from Grillagh, Maghera, County Derry my great grandfather in 1867 aged 20 and his brother a few years earlier and they set up their produce store about this time - strategically located not too from the army barracks and its many hungry horses. I don't know what happened to the store but my great grandfather did well enough to retire when he was 30, drink lots of whisky and die in his 90s . Although the name service is relatively common I have had no luck in locating the descendants of William Service my grand mother's uncle although I know the names of his children and have photos of them and some of thier children. Your Kinsela's index sounds as if it is going to very helpful to a lot of people. As you mention the Kinsela building or site was later a night club or theatre restaurant - my mother used to point it out to me in connection with her grandfather's store.
