at least two from that list on the census were in Dublin in the 1860s..

  21 Holles-street, Herr Emilius Wespendorf, professor of German
       (Harcourt Terrace (http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Dublin/Fitzwilliam/Harcourt_Terrace/1306623/) in 1901)

  5 Crow Street, Jacob Frengley, watchmaker, and importer of watch
      materials and tools  (Ranelagh Road (http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Dublin/Rathmines___Rathgar_East/Ranelagh_Road/1293423/)  in 1901)

(from Thom's 1862, Dublin City listing - see directories in Dublin Resources)
