Frederick Poole

Hi Vincent,
Ive got a huge amount on Fred Poole and his family. He was born in Dublin in 1820, the son of a house painter. It looks like he had at least 2 brothers, Charles and Edward who both became painters and a sister Charlotte. Their parents were Frederick a painter and Mary Drake. Unfortunately Ive hit a dead end going back further. Fred Jnr. had a family first with Sophie Fanning and when she died he married Mary Jane Madden and had another tribe of kids. None of the first family seems to have staye in Dublin and many of them seem to never have lived to adulthood. One of them Joseph was executed in Dublin in 1883. He was a Fenian. Fred's second family were John Christopher (my great grand father) Vincent, Paddy, and Agnes. Another boy David died young. Which one of these is your ancestor. My email is robdelaney70@eircom.net I'll send you more detailed info.
