    Hi there,

    I am trying to find a photograph of the Tenement Houses in Lombard Street back circa. 1940's/1950's.

    I am searching for it for my Uncle. He went into the General Registry Office in Lombard Street to get his birth cert. The conversation was brilliant - she asked him "Where were you born?" "Here" he replied. "What do you mean here? Here in Dublin" she asks back. "Here, as in right here" he says. "Here, as in Lombard Street?" she asks again. "Absolutely, right here as in our Tenement Building stood right here on this site where you are sitting now!!!"

    I would be willing to pay to get a copy, it would make his day.

    Cheers.
