Hi, my apologies for the late reply. I will of course try to help out with your research, but I will be honest and say it will be at least another week before I will get a chance to check anything in earnest. I still have alot of other research for others to get through, but I will get around to it very soon.

Hello AnthonyC,

 

Thank you for your message, no problem, take your time.  Nice to know a link has been made here to add news for the Maguires on Seventh Lock when the time comes.  This knowledge is a relief.

Hi Imelda FB Magure,

I grew up in No2 Nugget Cottages in Bluebell Dublin 12.

The three Nugget Cottages were owned and built by the Nugget Shoe Polish co, hence the name.

The factory was only a short walk up the road from the house

A Mrs Eileen Neate did live next door in No 2. She died in January 1988 and is buried along with her husband, John who seems to have died young in 1944, in Bluebell Cemetary. Pictures of the grave can be found on the 'Find A Grave' website. There were at least three families with the name Magure in Bluebell when I was growing up. I am still friends with a Brian Magure who lived on the 'Old Naas Road' and I will try to contact him to see what he remembers of the other Magure clans.

 

Cheers.

Hi Imelda.

Please excuse my typo, my family lived in No 1 Nugget Cottages and NOT No 2 as stated above.

Hello again Liam,

 

My mam Patricia Josephine Neate daughter of Eileen Neate from #2 Nuggett Cottages passed away on April 24th of this year 2016 a Sunday morning at 10:00 am.  Mam struggled with Alzheimer disease for the last eight years. Her final days were at Winfield long term facililty in Oshawa Ontario. We were all there with her when she slipped peacefully away.

 

Was not sure how you made out finding the Maguires of Naas Road, my father Andrew Frank Maguire's family but thought it most important to at least let you know of this current event in order to pass along the news to the Maguires or Maggie, Annie and Lizzy Costello from Dublin my mam's cousins should they still be alive.

 

Thank you so much Liam for all your efforts in this search for the Maguire family, would surely still like to find a contact so do indeed keep me posted and drop a line should you have any luck at all.

 

God Bless

Hi, All you folks who have a connection with the Nugget factory and local cottages.on the old Naas road. I am a collector and archivist of old photographs of Ireland and I just found a wonderful image from 1952 showing the factory and cottages in a very rural setting. What amazed me was the size of the back gardens you had back then, I am sure some factory is sitting on them now. I dont think I can post it on this site but I am willing to share with all through a email. mine is       patkiersey@hotmail.com         Regards, Pat
