Well, if it's the Heinrich from Rothselberg then my relatives only live about 5 miles away and I've probably driven through there! Small world
Very useful info ty. What I’ve seen from the Alien registration form 1914-1922 (posted earlier in this thread) which was completed by Dublin Metropolitan Police is that George Schlicher arrived in 1871. Birthplace Frankelbach, Bavaria. His date of birth was recorded as 6 June 1849. So He was indeed from Bayern, Pfalz now part of Rhineland Pfalz or the Rhineland Palatinate. He also registered 3 sons born in 1876, 1879 and 1883. Place of birth for all 3 is specified as Dublin.
So that list of arrivals seems too early. Is the list of arrivals from 1709 or just in 1709? And do you know of further sources detailing arrivals? I’ve been searching but had no luck so far. I’ve also been checking births in German records and found a couple of possibles in Bavaria but not in Frankelbach.
Of course any part of these records is subject to misspelling and dependent on correct facts being given and recorded etc which further complicates matters.

Thank you so much for the added info and for taking the time to reply. It’s a bit confusing, all the same names living in the one street👍👍👍
