Hi Cara I can feel a fight brewing over this issue!!!! ;-) Locals are known to spell it Dun Laoire and indeed a very old name (that was used even when it was called Kingston) is Dun Leary. And of course the King Rat himself, Sir B Geldorf rhymes it with "drunk and bleary that's Dun Laoire" Brendan On 25 Oct 2008 at 11:31, Cara_Links wrote: > By the way this is the correct spelling Dun Laoghaire of the town -- Brendan Dixon Educational Technologist UCD IT Services, Belfield, Dublin 4, Ireland Vox: 353 1 7162008 Fax: 353 1 2837077 Save Paper " Do you really need to print this e-mail?

Hi I checked Peter Pearson's book - there is a Kingstown House but not Kingston House. Also the place names index on logainm.ie refers to a Kingston townland both in Wicklow and Dublin (perhaps near Kilternan?) I would probably go for the Wicklow Kingston though :) M
