right end of ribbon
In 2018/19 grandson, Joseph E Dowling (1960-), said, "Did you know that my grandfather Michael was definitely in the I.R.A.?

There is a story, which Michael swore really happened: there was a British Police officer who was flirting or harassing my his sister and Michael hit him with a saddle... and there happened to be a horse under it at the time! He was apparently circulated as 'wanted' and so fled at a moment's notice to the U.S. and Waterbury in Connecticut. A few years later he lonked-up with a relative in Ridigefield. I have no idea if it is true but you know what they say in Ireland... never let the facts ruin a good story! Grandfather also knew how to make saddles.

"Did you know he was the SEXTON of a very large church and school grounds? He was so self-conscious I was told he cut the grass in a white dress shirt and tie. When he first got here from Ireland he lived in Waterbury CT (Connecticut, USA) for a few years. My father even remembered his address. I go through WATERBURY all the time. It is a depressed old rust belt city but still has some amazing buildings and history to it."

Local Mountmellick, Laois, Ireland newspaper c1976: "Trophy in memory of Tom Dowling"
Before his death last August, the late Tommie Dowling was one of Mountmellick's greatest GAA fans, and the family's Hollow Bar continues to be one of the most popular venues for Gaelic sportmen in the town. In memory of his great interest in the game, his family has presented the town's G.F.C. with a trophy which will be contested for in a tournament later this year."

    In the Dowling One-Name Study Donald Dowling has the reference number 223.
right end of ribbon
Donald was born on 12 April 1922 in Portlaoise Hospital, Portlaise, Laois, Ireland. He was the fourth child of Daniel Joseph Dowling and Mary Elizabeth Burke. His siblings were Thomas, Alexander and Mary(May).

Importantly before Donald's birth, his mother had been permanently hospitalised to St Fintan's Hospital on 12 November 1921 with a disorder leading to her death with Cerebral haemorrhage in 1958. Mother, Mary, was temporarily taken to Portlaise Hospital, from St Fintan's Hospital for the Donald's birth; Donald never knew his mother.

In fact, Donald knew little of his father too as Daniel Joseph died in 1930 when Donald was only 8 years old.

Donald, which is Irish for Daniel, after his father, never married and emigrated to England to work as a railman in London after the Second World War.

He lived at the George IV Public House in Kentish Town, with his cousin John, for most of his life before retiring to a flat with John's widow Gladys.

This is a story from James Naughton son of Bridie Maher, daughter of Julia Mary Dowling; "...a little story about Donal of whom my mother was also very fond. In the 1970's when my parents were retired and after an absence of over forty years since she had seen him, a man called to her door and said he was selling second hand carpets and would she be interested in buying any. She recognised him and said "Donal Dowling, you are not going to fool me, I could never forget you" so they spent the afternoon going back over old times. Donal had been on holidays and called thinking he could pull a fast one on her- he was very pleased that after all these years she recognised him immediately."

On his death he left a significant legacy in a will incorrectly completed two days before his death in hospital. The dispute that followed became bitter and split relations between cousins. In the end his estate was split up in equal shares amongst the children of his siblings and Gladys Dowling, with whom he had been living as a lodger for much of his life.

right end of ribbon
William Stephens was born about 1841to Mr and Mrs Edward STEPHENS a labourer probably of Dudley in Worcestershire.

William's occupation was initially as a labourer.

He married Catherine SHUTER on 7th June 1852 in Dudley, Worcestershire where they were both residing at the time. Both are shown as having no other previous marriages and William signed his name with a cross.

William later became a Police Officer.

They had at least one son, William, who was born on 14th March 1856 at home in 104 New Hall Street, Birmingham, Warwickshire, UK.

Five years later an examination of the 1861 UK Census for Birmingham showed that 104 Newhall Street was a 'Paper Shop' and had no occupants. This discrepancy may only be that they were not at home on the night of the census. (Another family of Stephens were shown at no. 108 Newhall Street- Charles the head of the family aged 48 and a wine merchant from Rodborough in Gloucestershire and his wife Elizabeth aged 50 of Horlbey in Gloucester.)
