Question:

Howth, Dublin... does anybody know what Howth Lodge was in the mid 1800's please?

My ancestor, Charles Kohler, was a Merchant Tailor in Howth, Dublin. He was registered as having interests both in Sackville Street (where he ran the Regimental Tailors) and at Howth Lodge. He also had a business in London's expensive Clifford Street, all of which were on register aroundabout the 1850's.

Does anyone know what Howth Lodge was at the time and/or have any details on it please? I don't know if it was a residential or business address and would love to find out anything I can on the property. Thanks!


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: You seem to know more about it than anything on the web.

General history would suggest it was residential at that time, it's unlikely to have been made into a business during that period.

Have you tried contacting the hotel to see if someone there knows?
