Philipsburgh Avenue, Fairview
« on: Thursday 07 May 09 07:55 BST (UK) »
Hi folks
Does anyone know if Philipsburgh Ave is still the same as it was in 1910?
I'm particularly interested in no. 137, have just discovered my g/grandfather died there.
Now why couldn't he have hung on till the 1911 census  :(

There's a current photo of a house for sale on Philipsburgh Avenue
at this link : http://www.rootschat.com/links/0690/

not far from number 137 and probably similar in design

the strange thing is that the 1911 census only shows seven houses on Philipsburgh Avenue..

see : http://www.rootschat.com/links/0691/

edit : I've just spotted that the road is spit across two districts

my mistake - that was just part of the road, the rest is in a different DED (Clontarf West)
