Thanks Shane, Do you think that later he could be referred to as a Waiter. 1875 on a UK marriage cert.? or his this a long stretch !!!

[shanew147]

it may be a little bit of step-down from being a vintner but I suppose he would have had the right sort of experience to work as a waiter in a pub or hotel.

There are five Peter Martins, see below,

Patrick Martin, 16 Abbey Street, Shoemaker (1835)
Patrick Martin, 124 Mecklinburgh Street (1832) either a barber or bester.. very hard to read this one.
Patrick Martin, 64 Mary's Lane, Broker (1935)
Patrick Martin, 64 Mary's Lane, Broker (1932)

Thank you for the information.

Martin family of Dublin has been difficult to research.  Related or not?

Alexander Macaulay (1819-1849) of Cushendall, Co. Antrim m. 1848 at Rathfarnham Church, Dublin to Maria Martin, dau of John Martin of Air Hill, Rathgar.

They had one son, also an Alexander.  Their son m. Emily Rotherham, dau of George A. Rotherham, High Sheriff of Co. Meath.

I cant see any sign of an 'Air Hill' in Rathgar around the 1850s - but in later years (1870/80) there is an Airfield Terrace and cottages in Rathgar..

I found an Airhill, and Airhill terrace in Kingstown (Dún Laoghaire) and an Airhill (house) in Loughlinstown - near to Shankill.

Of the listing I saw the closest to Rathgar would be

  Mrs. Delaney Air Park, Scholarstown, Rathfarnham (src:Thom's 1850)

I also found a possible Rotherham connection in Slaters-1846
In the nobility, gentry, clergy section for Castle-pollard, Co. Westmeath

  Geo. Rotherhams, Esq. Sally Mount

Hi.

I noted that you mentioned having found an Air Hill in Loughlinstown near to Shankill.  I have been looking for an Air Hill House in Loughlinstown for some time.  I wonder can you provide me with a source please?

Kind regards

I believe that it was mentioned in a Thom's directory of Dublin, either 1850 or 1863. I'll check and get back to you..

found Air Hill listed in several editions of Thom's, see below for the occupants :

Loughlinstown (Cabinteely)
1848/50/52 Mr. Edward Kennedy, Air Hill,

Shanganagh (Loughlinstown)
1863 - Thomas Smith esq, Air Hill,
1877/80 - Captain Sullivan R.N., Airhill
1884 - Airhill - vacant

not found in later editions (1894/1914)

I located the house on an old OS map, it's located about 400m south east of the Rathdown workhouse/St. Columcille's Hospital.

see general location on this google map : http://www.rootschat.com/links/07bm/  Air Hill - would have been about 200m due west of the marker

The house is also marked on Griffiths maps :
 townland : Shanganagh
 Civil Parish : Rathmichael

Air Hill is located in site number 16  and is listed to a Francis Carter Esq, leasing land 14 acres from Miss Martha Roberts.
