Hi all.. chasing detail on Thomas Crosby, 1801 - 1882, a sail and rope manufacturers, at 7 North Wall Quay and Sir John Rogerson Quay, Dublin, lived at 62 Amiens St . 3 times Great Grandfather of my wife,
I've seen a note of an Obit. in the 'Cork Examiner' of the 15th of April 1882.. No idea of how to locate a copy of same.
Would be most appreciative of any advices re such, or of Thomas himself, his wife ( unknown) and parents.
My Wife's line is via his daughter Eliza ( or Elizabeth) 1836 - 1873 who married a Joseph 'John' Lanigan, 1818-1878, owner of a Rope & Twine manufacturing business in Dublin. Their two young orphaned children, Ann & John, aged 7 & 8, went out to Australia in 1880, aboard the 'Potosi' but.... No idea who accompanied or fostered them.. lots of questions in this one but it's a new line of inquiry to me of which there is negligible detail in this branch of their descendants. Thanks all.
