I am looking for info. on my grandparents family name Symington they married in St Kevins in Dublin (Rathmines?) My grandmothers maiden name was Harold-family from Bray. My grandfather was called Joseph Thomas. I believe he had a coalmerchants business in Dublin. Most of my family have died and I am finding it really difficult to get info as I am in London so cant get to search through records etc. I still have relations at 31 Ranlagh Rd Rathmines and this has been the family home for over seventy years,but tey cant tell me much more than that. My father was put into the Christian Brothers as a very young boy but I cant get info on these either.His name was Thomas Joseph but he was always called Joe by the family. My father had a brother -Shamie is that James? and two sisters- May and Annie. Can you help? or lead me in the right direction? Regards Alison Morris nee. Symington
