Dave,

Thanks for your help and all the info you have found.

The person I am looking for was a gardener and unlikely to be mentioned in any of the directories. From addresses on various BMD's I have linked him to Edward Piers (solicitor) at Balscadden Cottage and later at Warren Lodge. I also have Warren Cottage, Howth on a birth cert and his daughter later lived at Warren Cottages, Kilbarrack. I have verified the Warren Cottages, Kilbarrack bit as mentioned earlier.

I'm now trying to track her father through his employers who are mentioned in the directories. At the moment I'm following a hunch that he may have been working for the Earl of Howth while at Warren Cottage. Unfortunately I have not been able to find him on any Estate Records.

Once again, thank you for your input.

Dara.

I think I have finally cracked this but before I put it to bed I would appreciate if someone could double-check the extent of the land of Warren Lodge on the Griffiths site. (Still haven't figured how to post links to the map!! (Sorry).

If you go to http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/index.xml

and search for Thomas Stafford, County = Dublin, Parish = Kilbarrack you should get two results, one for 1848 and the other for 1850. Check the details and see that Thomas is living in plot #9.

Click on the original page and you will see that he lives in Kilbarrack Lower, plot #9h.

Now go to the map and search Kilbarrack Lower for 9h. This is where the fun begins.

The plots in Kilbarrack Lower seem to run west to east, or left to right, depending on your orientation. I can quite easily find 1 to 8, with an occasional 12 or 13 thrown in for variety.

Are you seeing what I'm seeing?

I can see site 9 in the north east corner of the townland, just to the north of the railway line, but the sub-plots are not very clearly marked.  I think I can see a,b and c .. but not the others (d to h).

Looking at Griffiths and the map letters a-e seem to refer to buildings with small plots of land (10 perches) in the east and south of the area, and the other items (f to h) refer to buildings only, which I think, could be those to the west of the site. There seems to be 5 of these ?

I should be interested to hear from 'Shanew147' in respect of the discussion about the Warren at Howth in 1849 - I am interested in the residency in just that vicinity of a family of Daniel Robertson (who died there in September 1849) of his wife and some of his children arrived from England in August 1849 and lodged thereabouts, perhaps with the support of Captain McLintock Bunbury of Lisnavagh, Co. Carlow (who may have had an interest in local property thereabouts) at that time and for a few weeks (only, perhaps - or longer)
With thanks
