Title: Any one with good eyes 3
Post by: kelsmell on Wednesday 14 October 09 22:54 BST (UK)
Hi I’ve received some photo copies of marriage certs from Dublin (time’s are hard) and for the life of me I just can’t read some of the words I have others but I will listed them separately at avoid confusion!
This is the wed cert for Thomas O’Connor & Mary Farrell in 1896

Can any one tell me what Frances address is it looks like Rail Road can’t find a road in Dublin named Rail Road?

Is John O’Connor’s occupation silver smith if so where do you think he would of worked?

Mary’s dad’s occupation looks like Poulter to me so I looked on the 1911 census and fount a Thomas Farrell living at 8 Georges Hill (same road as Mary was living in 1896 she lived at number 10) his occupation was Poulteres looked like him his wife was Mary and his daughter was Mary Ann well they properly wouldn’t have two daughter’s named Mary is it possible that the daughter on the 1911 census was named Anne Mary or am I clutching at straws?

Any help would be great thanks

Eyesight is not great but could the address be Back Road and the occupation Plasterer?

Hi, not sure if this will be of any use but here goes,
the address looks like 1 Earl road. problem is there
seems to be only Earl street in Dublin ,if this is the
right one then its likely to be Earl street north as
the marriage took place on the north side of Dublin.

Farrell's listed in George's Hill in 1904  :

 2 Mr. James Farrell
 12 Thomas, Farrell, poultry dealer
 13 Mrs. Farrell, poultry dealer

No Farrell's on the street in 1884

p.s. I think the groom's address could read 1 East Road which is between Sherrif st and East Wall Rd ... compare the last letter against the 't' with the missing cross-bar in silver smith or poulterer (father's occupations)

I agree with Shane about the address being  number 1 east road.
the 1911 census does'nt show an O'Connor family at that
address but there are O'Connors at number 6 east road.
                                                     Anne
posting link for O'Connors at 6 east road in case they are relatives
of Thomas as this result is not showing up on a normal search for
 some strange reason,only found it by going through the census street by street.

for some reason OConnor family in East Road that Anne mentioned is transcribed as OConnor - no space no '  and they only show up if you enter this spelling

Dear Readers

My Irish Times source work shows the following:

   13 George's Hill on 24th December 1890 in Death Section on P.1 Lawrence Farrell
