Dublin / Re: Gaskin family of Dublin

Hi Tony, the Bible is owned by my cousin one of the Griffin’s. It was handed down over the years and we assume it originally belonged to Cornelius Griffin or his wife Sarah. I can only assume as they were living in the same house that they were good friends. It also possible there was some connection between the families. Charles Gaskin(Sullivan) was only 39 when he died in Liverpool 27/02/1887. There are some newspaper articles on his death one in the Evening Telegraph Angus Scotland dated 3/03/1887 under the name Charles Sullivan.
Hope this helps
Regards Declan

Hi
Something you might be interested in.
My great great grandfather Cornelius Griffin lived at 45 Queens square and was friends with Charles Gaskin. Charles was an actor who went under the name Charles Sullivan.
I have attached an extract from a book and also two pictures from an old bible which one of the family owns.
regards
Declan
