Hi i have found out my GGGrandfather Nathaniel Lannin Married a Margaret Mahoney on 12 th April 1846 in the Church of St Finbarrs in the Cathedral of St Barry in Cork City. On the Certificate they have given their Place of Residence as 129 Bandon Road . Hopefully someone can Help me with the following, How could i find out anything about 129 Bandon Road ( what was there at the time), perhaps one of the Directories may be the best?. I have assumed that 129 Bandon Road was in Cork City , perhaps it wasn`t . Any Help is Appreciated. Regards Ron Lanning
Hi Ron, This will show Bandon Rd. on a map of Cork City: http://www.corkcity.ie/maps/maps/30.html Scroll down to the end of the map for Bandon Rd. and you also see a red triangular building in the top right corner which indicates the Cathedral. I think there is a directory for Cork City for some year in the 1840s but I don't believe it listed every house. Other directories were published in the 1860s and on a fairly regular basis from 1875/76. Quite a few of the old houses on Bandon Rd. still stand but I am not sure if 129 is among them. Next time I pass that way I will check.
