Farley's Court
« on: Wednesday 04 July 12 22:53 BST (UK) »
Would anyone by any chance know where this place might have been?   The death certificate for my GG Grandfather John Day gives his place of death as 3 Farley's Court.  The death was registered in the district of Blackrock in the union of Rathdown, and the year was 1910.  The same address is given for the residence of the Informant, John's son, also John.
The following year, John Jnr was living elsewhere in Blackrock, here http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Dublin/Blackrock_No__2/Brookfield_Buildings/88227/

I've checked maps for the period but can find no reference to Farley's Court in the Blackrock area.  I've also of course tried google, but it only throws up one reference to Farley's Court in Dublin, and that is in St Audeons parish in Dublin City.  Anyone got any suggestions?
Thanks,
Stephen

the only possible clue I've been able to find so far is a Farley & Co. meat stores at number 17 on Newtown Ave., Blackrock. Maybe Farley's court was associated with this ?

Also on the same Road in 1910 is a T. J.  Farley esq., at Ardmore (number 39).

Could you paste a pic of the address just to be sure that it does in fact say 'Farley's Court'

...

looks like Farley's Court to me ...

Does the cert mention a number after district - e.g. Blackrock no 1 or 2 ?

No unfortunately.  In both places where it mentions the district, it refers to it purely as Blackrock, without a number.

I suppose the only other theories are that either the registrar misheard John when he was registering the death OR John himself gave an incorrect address by mistake !

Hi Folks,
Farrelly’s Court did exist in 1901 (note spelling), I know I have come across it before and will check to see if I have an exact location as there is something in the back of my mind that some Courts were replaced with ‘buildings’ such as Brookfield, Victoria, etc.
