    Hi there

    Im trying to look into some family history, Im trying to identify a man with the second name of Scully which lived on Ferguson Road, Drumcondra around 1935, He possible moved after these dates and this would have been his mother and fathers home. And I know his trade was as a steeplejack.

    I would REALLY appreciate any information on him or his family. It would also be great if someone knew the number of the house they lived in!?

    Thanks a mil, :D:confused::confused::confused:

    Maybe if you were to check the parish records, you might find something there. Otherwise, census records would be your only option.

    On the electoral records for 1939-1940 the only Scully's listed are on O'Daly Road and Griffith Avenue.
    Don't know if this helps...
