Free Look-Ups for Dublin, Ireland

[Fushia]

I have just noticed that you have access to a 1950 directory for Dublin.   Could you give me any information about any of the Henderson family living in Dublin please.  I am looking for an address for Alfred Henderson but any other Hendersons in the directory are of interest too.

Many thanks.

Hi Catherine,

This is great. It is my first post.

I found my ancestor, Cecilia Pendergast, when she got married in London to James Stanton in 1823. She emigrated July 1843 from Liverpool on the Ship Scotia. Later a census in the USA (Baltimore, Maryland) listed her as born in Ireland.  I have never found an exact birthdate but the various census suggests between 1790 and 1793.  A possible brother, Charles Pendergast, was listed as born in Dublin in 1791.

That is not a lot of info. but I am hoping there is a database that may contain Cecilia born between those years or Cecilia and Charles in the same Pendergast family about that  time period. Any suggestions are welcome.

the moment,when i noticed christophers link

a way of researching parish registers online.
i have many ancesters buried in mount jerome
and have phoned in the past and gained some details
by writing and including a postal order for the fee,
                           thanks again.anne

i know of a family with that surname who lived
in a place called maryland in dublin 8 for many years

Hello taid,

Charles Freer was a producer with the BBC Northern Ireland Home Service.
I think his wife was Doreen and their daughter was Judith.

Hello Anne,

Snap, most of mine are in Glasnevin, a couple then scattered around Celbridge, Skerries, and Dardistown,....

My Freear's are in Cambridge, and Worcestershire, not been able to connect that side of the family to Ireland just yet lol... I think that would crack me up since the irish side of Condon's, Scanlan's, McDonnell's and others have been tough enough to struggle through... must meet up for a coffee in Town some day lol

Best wishes

Mo
