    1. Re: [IRL-DUBLIN-CITY] Fitter C.S.W.R. in Dublin
    2. Perhaps the "C" is actually a "G" in which case it might well be "Great Southern & Western Railway" that became part of the Great Southern Railway Company in the period soon after the Irish Free State was formed. GSWR had workshops at Inchicore, Dublin. These links may also help.............. _http://mikes.railhistory.railfan.net/r051.html_ (http://mikes.railhistory.railfan.net/r051.html) If you put the following search term into Google "Great Southern and Western Railway" (include the quotation marks) you should get 728 hits) if you don't use the quote marks you'll get over a million! Hope this helps. Stuart

    3. Stuart, Thank you so much for your reply and the link and search suggestion ("C.S.W.R." didn't yield anything, so it is good to know it could be G.S.W.R.) I'll have to take another look at the birth certificate. As I indicated to Debby in my earlier reply, the Dunnes had moved to 32 Phoenix St., Inchicore by WWI, so the railway is quite likely. All the best, Nancy [email protected] wrote: Perhaps the "C" is actually a "G" in which case it might well be "Great Southern & Western Railway" that became part of the Great Southern Railway Company in the period soon after the Irish Free State was formed.
