Hello Kristof,
I am new to rootschat and I have seen quite a few of your posts. I am afraid that I cannot help you with your enquiries. However, I think we might be distantly related - we certainly have ancestors in common.
I think Francis Brennan you mentioned must have been "Terry" Brennan who was married to my Aunt "Nan". She was really my mother's Aunt and lived on McKee Avenue in Finglas. I remember her from my childhood days. She died when I was still very young.
Maybe you can help me though. I am looking for information on James "Jimmy" O'Brien who married the daughter of Francis' brother Patrick. I looked at the census of 1911 and there are both O'Briens and Brennans from Finglas East recorded there but I am not sure if they are relatives. Would you have any knowledge of O'Briens from that area or from "Dubber".
