KEOGH, JOHN [2]*

Builder, carpenter and undertaker, of 76 Cook Street, Dublin, listed as such in Wilson's Dublin Directory for 1835. According to his fellow tradesmen, writing in 1834, he had at one stage employed three men but was 'Now 'in another business', presumably that of undertaker.(1)  He may have died in 1835 as in the 1836 edition of the directory a Mrs. Keogh is named as the occupant of the property. See also JOHN KEOGH [1]. JOHN KEOGH [1].
