Hi new to the site I'm looking for old pictures of Patrick Street before the tenements were demolished my grandfather was reared on Patrick Street I have no pics of were he spent his youth! He lived in 44-45 Patrick Street along with many relatives!!! His mother Josephine Geraghty, he was an only child his name was John (jack) Bowes he was a post man here in Finglas!! Any pics of Patrick Street you have could you pass them on I am doing my family tree and would love a pic of where he was born thanks

That what it says on the register of electors for 1937-1949!!! Biddy Holmes was living there too!! Along with a good few people Tommy thanks for the info u passed on I am following the Jimmy Dunne lead you mentioned

44/45 Patrick Street there are a family of Gannons who u mentioned aswel Biddy was in the register of electors up until the 60's I have to check it manually after that as they aren't on the computer system yet!!

Part of Patrick Street in the 1930s heading towards Nicholas Street or would it be all Nicholas Street? I was never sure where one ended and the other started

i think nichoas street started at the bride road..i cant remember my relations number now....second bock on the right first hallway

i just counted the hallways from bride road.......it is the seventh one where she lived...and seven seems to ring a bell
