Thinking in terms of phonetic spelling of surnames, does anyone else feel there's a possibility that the entry, #18935 ANNETT, Robt 19 14-Oct Down P 16/1/1876 Carlow Weaver could actually have been Sinnott, as I have never seen any reference to Annett before, but many variations starting with "S" , and if you say Robert Annett fast, it sounds plausible Edd Sinnett in Florida ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christina Hunt" <chrisnina@gmail.com> To: <irl-dublin-city@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2012 1:41 PM Subject: [DUBLIN-CITY] More R.I.C. men from Dublin > We have just added to the IGP archives - Royal Irish Constabulary men from > Dublin, who joined in 1854. > To check them out go to: > http://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives/ > > Click on DUBLIN and then MILITARY & CONSTABULARY. > > Hope someone finds something interesting here. > > Regards, > Christina > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > IRL-DUBLIN-CITY-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without > the quotes in the subject and the body of the message >

Hi Stuart Thank you for the info, I can see the church now, my great grand mother was born at no 1 North King St but was (C) at St Michan RC. I see King St flows onto King St North then Bolton St. With the Twins I will write to the church & see if they can help. Once again thank you for your help. Jennette > > 1.

We have just added to the IGP archives - Royal Irish Constabulary men from Dublin, who joined in 1854. To check them out go to: http://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives/ Click on DUBLIN and then MILITARY & CONSTABULARY. Hope someone finds something interesting here. Regards, Christina

Hi, the main military hospital in Dublin was the Royal hospital. However some Churches were temporary military hospitals in the 1800s. Check out these sites 1st, militaryarchives.ie, archhistory.co.uk/history.html, You could write to: Genealogy, Cathal Brugha Barracks, Rathmines, Dublin 6. They may be able to help.

Could be Bruce, Bruton, Brunell, If you put Bru into the surname box and go down the alphabet, ie, Brua, Brub, Bruc etc, you will get more names as the box beneath will finish the surnames that are listed on dublinheritage electoral roles. Maggie

Thank you Maggie. excellent idea.

Jeff Thanks for the details of the Graves. I shall keep a note of them for when I get back to Glasnevin, but I can't see that being in the near future. If anyone else finds them for you, just let me know. The Garden Section is rather like a large field with headstones scattered through it, and quite difficult to work out rows, but I will have a go at finding them as I say when next there. Best wishes Joyce

Hello Bonnie I am wondering if the first address you mention could be Townsend Street, which is in Dublin City. The second address at Blackrock, is about five miles from Townsend Street, You could try searching the 1901 and 1911 Census at http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/ Mary Archbold is there o.k. in 1911 Census at Brookfield Buildings, but I can't find anything for the surname "Bru".

I suspect they have access to the films. I have asked for corroboration about whether a name was correctly transcribed and was told yes. One of these emails was to the Swords Centre (Dublin). They did not send me the scan as proof. I assume if they can check - they have the film.

Hi Christina, My Mothers Family all came from this area. I found that post 1830, most of them were buried in Glassnevin. Before 1830, some were buried at St. Pauls coi Churchyard, even though they were RC. I have also found this on the southside, where Catholics were buried at St. James coi. I presume it depended on whichever cemetary was nearest. Pre 1830, Bullys acre (Royal hospital) seemed to be popular with both Northsiders+Southsiders and also with RCs + COIs. People lived in tenements up untill the 1960s/70s, so it was easy to move from house to house, usually for slightly better living conditions, there was no north/south divide, City dwellers would move frequently (every few years) from the north quays to the south quays + vice versa. I have found most of my Families buriel places , except one of my Grandads Brothers sold his body to the College of Surgeons.

Hi Joyce While looking at the Glasnevin Trust site I find that two or three of my relatives are buried there Oliver Archbold 1892, Maria Archbold 1896 and Christopher Archbold 1896. Would there be any grave stones still standing for them? Also in two cases it states that other people are buried in the same grave and may not be related is this normal practise. Jeff

Thank you Stuart - this is just what I've been looking for as I have found family in St.Paul's Arran Quay parish. I also have been noticing that the records for Dublin seem to be split between the Free Dublin Genealogy site and the pay site rootsireland. Hard to know if *all* Dublin City is available yet.

Thank you Joyce. Yes, you are correct. It is Townsend Street. I appreciate the information and maybe I can get this figured out.

Greetings from Minnesota, I have been struggling with a brick wall for over 20 years trying to find more information on my Irish ancestors and hope someone might be able to help me out. I have a letter sent to my grandmother Dec 7 early 1900. The handwriting is very difficult to read but the return address appears to be 111 Townsent or Lownsenit, Dublin. The name signed is a Mrs A. Bru, an aunt to my grandmother. It appears the last name may be off the page a bit. Is there anyway determine the name of the street and perhaps who was living at this address in the early 1900's? Another letter was sent Dec 8, 1913 from a cousin Mary Archbold living at 60 Brookfield Bds, Brookfield Ave. Blackrock, Dublin. Could these 2 addresses be close to each other?? At one time I thought there was a site where this information could be found but I cannot locate it in my archives. Any help is greatly appreciated. Bonnie

Hi, there are two pages of wrens on the electoral roles of 1940. See dublinheritage.ie. You could write to these addresses to see if any of your Family are still there. Further info can be obtained from Dublin City Library. Maggie

He married Ann KEEGAN about 1843. they had 11 children : Elizabeth, (b. 1845), John (1847 - 1846) , William (1849 - 1855), James (1852 - 1906), Margaret (1854), Mary (1856 - 1934), Ann (1858 - 1862), Francis (1860 - 1900), Teresa (1863 d age 4 months), Joseph (1865 - 1866) William (1867 - 1908). I am particularly interested to discover what happened to Elizabeth and Margaret. I would be grateful for any help. Chris Wren, Adelaide South Australia.
