Does anyone know where a street named Fanning Place is/was located around 1894 in Dublin???? Thanks, Kevin
-
although the street name name does sound vaguely familiar, I cannot find any mention of Fanning place in street listings for 1894 or 1904.
Is the source of this a cert of some type ?
If so can you post the registration and sub-district details..

Superintendent Registrars District: North Dublin
Registrar's District: No. 1 East
Registered in the District of : No. 1 East
Union of : North Dublin

Is this the information???
Thanks,

Someone on Rootschat went to the GRO and looked up information for me. She found 3 records, 1 of the records she could not see what the address was. That was for an 1891 birth. The 1894 birth, is the birth with 4 Fanning Place. The 1900 birth was 3 Bayleys Row. She was confident it said 4 Fanning Place, but said she could not locate the street on a map.
Thanks!!

could it be Canning place by any chance ?
There is a street with that name in Dublin North City / Number 1 East
The only names beginning with F listed in the sub-district are :
Fagan's cottages, Fish St, Flood's buildings, Forbes Castle, Fortcrystal court & terrace, Foster place north, Frankford cottages & terrace, and French's terrace

I just emailed the person that did the lookup and told her about Canning Place.
Thanks!!

here's the street on the 1901 census : Canning Place, North Dock DED (http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Dublin/North_Dock/Canning_Place/)
and on an old OSI map : Canning place, North Dublin (http://maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,717074,735100,7)
(select the 25" option to see the c1890s map)

Thanks Shane!!! So it appears that the Street does not really exist today. When I switch to the 1890 version, I can clearly see the Canning Place. But when I switch to more recent maps it does not look like it is there.
Thanks for the help!
