the court case for john and henry fitzsimons started on the 18 sept 1838    their solicitor  was a Mr Fullam   i thought the national library of Austrailia had access to the dublin news paper freemans journal  from around 1820 to 1900   which is where i found this information i have taken a copy of the paper if you would like it let me know

Hi Martin,

I wasn't aware that the National Library did have this, clearly I didn't look hard enough!

I would love a copy of the trial paper, if that's ok with you. How best to do this? email?
Let me know

Thanks

Chris

Hi Martin,

because this site (rightly) blocks email addresses from public posts, I've sent you a PM with my email address - would love to get a copy of the Dublin paper with the trial details of the Fitzsimons'.

Thanks
Chris

Hi there,

I don't know who has access to the trade directories but I'm looking for any reference to John fagan at 18 great Brunswick street ( iron workers) and a James Fitzpatrick, dairy owner ( his address was 10 castlewood place, rathmines but I'm not sure whether that was his dairy too.

John fagan would have been before 1850 and James fitzzpatrick would have been before 1880's.

Thanks in advance for any help.

.....

not sure how this fits with your timeline... the 1872 and 1879 directories show  possible listings for both..

  18 Brunswick Street, Great
    John Fagan, manuf. housesmith and general worker in Iron

There's only 4 houses mentioned at Castlewood place, Rathmines - numbers 1 and 2, and two others without a number

  2 James Fitzpatrick, car owner

Thom's 1863

  18 Brunswick Street, Great
    Jas. Fagan, manuf. housesmith
 
  (no mention on Castlewood place in 1863)

Thom's 1852

  18 Brunswick Street, Great
    William Morrissey, manuf. housesmith

Thom's 1848

  18 Brunswick Street, Great
    William Morrissey, manuf. housesmith

Ok that's really interesting stuff. It now clears up the question of who came first on the fagan line when it came to number 18 Brunswick street.

What does car owner mean to warrant a mention in a trade directory?

a car owner would be similar to a Taxi Owner/Driver today... except with horses

Is it possible to check a Dublin trade directory for
 
56 Clanbrassil street upper.
 My great grandfather Patrick Malone was a Coachbuilder and so was his brother James . I see from the census that James Malone had a workshop so I was just wondering if they had their own business.
Thanks .
