Hello, I am researching a branch of my Doyle family who lived in Kingstown/Dun Laoghaire.
They are a new branch which i have discovered through researching Denis Doyle of 28 Fleet Street, Dublin.
Would appreciate anybody who has any interest in and or local history books/old photographs of Kingstown / Dun Laoghaire which they could look up..... and might offer me a clue or lead !! so all the info is below!
The families that are connected:
DOYLES of Kingstown who are the descendant branch of Denis Doyle, 28 Fleet Street, Dublin and Sydenham House, Dundrum, who was a grocer, spirit merchant of the city of Dublin.
The following names marrying into the family of Doyle in Kingstown are Egan, Timmons and O Neill.
Advert: Freemans Journal of 1871: for Shapleys Champagne Cider and Perry may be purchased from DENIS DOYLE and SON 28 Fleet Street and KINGSTOWN.
