The same listing appears in 1927...just as P. Halpin

On the Dublin City Electoral list for 1939, the address (as 79/80) has Patrick, Margaret, Patrick Christopher and Eugene Halpin. Also listed are Patrick O'Reilly and Mary Tyler.

Thanks very much for the very quick replys That must be the person I'm looking for. On the Sunday evening of the surrender in 1916, Mr Halpin be friend ed three people from the Jacobs garrison. Two male and one female. He was able to cloth one of the males and get rid of his uniform. He kept them for a week and feed them. One stayed over a week before trying to make it home to the north side of the city.
I am told that a son of the Halpins was shot dead by the I R A sone time in 1922 or 23. Anyone any information on this. Once again many thanks.

 I understand that there were two Patrick Halpins in the house in Cork St at that time, father and son. I would be interested in knowing the approximate age of the man who assisted the three fugitives.
I would also be interested in knowing the names of the fugitives, if they are known

Many thanks Dathai The plot thickens. It seems that the family changed addresses somewhere between 1911 and 1915. I suspect 1914. In 1911 (see census 1911) the family name seems to have been Halpenny and they lived in 6 Dolphins Barn St. They seem to have bought the dairy on 79/80 Cork St in approximately 1914 and the name they used over the door was Halpin.
The elder Halpenny/Halpin, according to the 1911 census did work in Guinness as a drayman. I found no trace of them in the 1901 census
