I am looking for any information on the family of Jesse Mayor/Mayer dob? dod? (chemist at 153 Capel Street, Dublin and lived in the Parish of Donnybrook at 29 Tritonville Road in 1839) married Catherine Hancock who died on 14 March 1877 in Arnott Street, Dublin. They had a son also named Jesse and a daughter Jane (married name Heldon), there may have been other siblings. Jesse Married Annette Coskey/Kosky who had a daughter named Edith Maud/May dob 1895, a daughter Nellie and the eldest daughter Annette Emily Mayor dob 15th November 1891 who married a William Kyle (date and place unknown)) they had children Thelma Kate, Harold and others, she later married Daniel Spangengberg in South Africa and had more children. There was also a brother Freddy who died in a war, presumably the 1st world war. I am particularly interested in the Mayor/Meyer family born in the 1890's but any info will be greatfully accepted. The following info is on the net:- >Annette Margaret Beresford Mayor Born 1891 Limerick Ireland Death Piketberg Cape of Good Hope South Africa Married Daniel John Spangenberg 1920 Cape town South Africa< the death dates are correct as is the Spangenberg info but the rest about Annette is dubious, I really need the birth cert of Annette Emily Mayor dob 1891 - it may be that they went to England prior to leaving for South Africa in (I think) the early 1900's. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi - I am still trying with no success as yet  - to locate information on the Mayor family who lived in the parish of Donnybrook, Dublin, specifically any information on Annette Emily Mayor dob 15/ Nov/1891 - she is listed in the IGI as being born in Limerick and her name is slightly different. I really need any information on this family.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I have just checked out something for you in Dublin.Now this is a property that belonged to the Beresford Family.So i do think its Linked to Annette.I do think we May be onto something With the Name Bersford,I think Annette's Mother Was a Beresford.And that is how Her Name comes about.Its possible She Was just born There on A visit As i cant Find Any other Beresfords there

Hi,
 
I have the following info from the Griffiths valuation:-
 
Mayor                  Jessy                  Irishtown, Tritonville Road      Donnybrook     Dublin
 
and his wife was a Catherine Hancock who outlived him and died in Arnott Street, Dublin which at that time was the Jewish quarter, her name on the death cert was spelt Meyer.
 
Annette's mother was an Annette Koskey/Coskey who married Jesse Mayor so the Beresford name must come in between these two.
 
The family seem to have had Jewish connections that they did not want known.
 
I hope that this will help.
 
thanks,
Ruth

Hi Ruth Yes I have A feeling Annettes mother was a Beresford, and thats how the name fits in Annette Beresford. If you look on various site the name appears quite often.  But also there were Beresfords in Dublin, as you can see by the Property
 
Mike

Hi, Her mother was Annette Koski/Coskey (spelt Coskey in the Death Cert) so the Beresford must have been the Grandmother.

Thanks,

Ruth

Hi Ruth,May i ask you,Have you Contacted St Camillus Hospital In Limerick,As they will have her Birth Cert if Born There.The Gro May have it But best contact St Cams.If you Had that Its something..It may tell us more.She May also have been Baptised In limerick.But birth Cert may Have the Address,Would be something like St johns,.At least with that we can try to take her side further,By contacting Church.

Hi Mike,

 

I have checked the records in Dublin and they attended St Peter's Parish (Church of Ireland) as that is where Catherine Hancock-Mayor/Meyer's funeral was held before being taken for burial to Mt Jerome cemetry, some records have unfortunately been destroyed in a flood (including all relating to this family).

I have been unable to make contact with the office in Limerick, any help here would be appreciated,

Thanks,

Ruth.
