MY INTEREST IN THESE FAMILIES.
In 1836, William MAGUIRE, Solicitor in Dublin, married Hannah HENEY, a daughter of Henry HENRY and Hannah SIBTHORPE.
William was the son of William MAGUIRE, Senior, and Mary VICKERS, and was a younger brother of Elizabeth MAGUIRE, who married John PIGOTT of Dublin (he was her mother's first cousin) - John and Elizabeth were my great-great-grandparents.
The following is the result of a survey of the surviving archived documents relating to these two Dublin families. When I have taken this survey as far as I am able, then, and only then, will I be tempted to refer to published on-line pedigrees, to see if I can fill some gaps, and refine any "speculative best-fit" presumptions that these archived records have tempted me to make, in the grand Irish family history tradition.

____________________________________________________
Henry HENEY was listed in 1830 [Wilson's Directory], at 62 Abbey Street Merchant; he was still listed in 1832 [Treble Almanac], all ditto; and in 1835 [Dublin Almanac and General Register], same address, as a general merchant. The 1830 Directory would have been prepared for publication before the end of 1829, and so before Henry's death - the later two listings appear to have been the result of his widow carrying on his business without notifying any changes.
Henry HENEY was of Pitt Street, Dublin, when he was married, by Consistorial License, at St Werburgh's Parish Church, Dublin, 26 March 1815, to Hannah SIBTHORPE; this marriage was the subject of Settlements dated 29 March 1815, made between John SIBTHORPE, his father Henry SIBTHORPE, of Exchange Street, Dublin, Glass Merchant, Henry's eldest daughter Hannah (the bride) and Henry HEANY, of Pitt Street (the groom), with the third party (of two Trustees) including Henry PARNELL of the City of Dublin, Esq [Memorial 472225, Volume 687, Page 67].
Hannah HENEY applied for the "Relief of those Merchants whose Goods were consumed by Fire at the Custom House in Dublin" in 1835 - her claim, dated 3 October, was for loss of Eau de Cologne (24 dozen - £18) and Liqueurs (60 bottles containing 9 44/64 gallons - £9 10s), totalling £27 10s [Parliamentary Papers, Session 1837, Volume XXXIX, Page 213]; she was at Parker Hill, 13 Rathmines Mall, 1845 [Pettigrew and Oulton's Dublin Directory], the residence of her widowed mother.
Mrs Hannah HENEY was recorded at Donnybrook Road, Parish of St Peter, Dublin, in 1850 [Griffith's Primary Valuation], residing in a house with small garden, valued at £29 14s, her principal lessor being named as John SIBTHORPE, Esq (he was at Epworth Terrace, same Valuation record).
Hannah was at Rathgar Road, in May 1873, when she wrote a letter to her grand-daughter in New South Wales (in the possession of her descendant, Dr Kingsley TUGWELL, who was, by remarkable co-incidence, my late father's G.P. in Pennant Hills, in the late 1970s).
Theodore CRONHELM, in his "Reminiscence of Dublin" [from the Christian Advocate, 1889-90], wrote from Sandymount, 27 May 1889:
"My references to the personnel of the [Methodist] Society at that period are necessarily very incomplete... One honoured name, however, must be mentioned as connected with my earliest recollections of the Abbey Street congregation - I refer to Mrs HENEY (mother of my esteemed friend Henry Parnell HENEY), who, in a beautiful old age, still lives amongst us, and counts her descendants even to the fourth generation."
Hannah died at 132 Upper Rathmines, at the residence of her grandson, 29 December 1889, aged 91, widow of the late Henry HENEY [Cork Constitution, 31 December]; the death was informed by Mary HENEY, of 7 Church Avenue, present at death (relationship not stated).
Henry and Hannah had issue, six of whom were living in January 1830, including:

____________________________________________________
THE METHODIST CONNECTION.
Lack of vital details in Irish records means that definitive family lineages for the HENEY and SIBTHORPE families will have gaps - which gaps will probably only ever be able to be "stopped up" using a degree of speculation.
Both families appear to have been Members of the Methodist Society in Dublin, and also appear to have followed the Primitive Wesleyan connexion after the Schism of 1818. This means that some refined "best-fit" speculative genealogy may be possible, if, as was not unknown, these families intermarried within the relatively tight-knit Methodist community.
Henry CROOKSHANK, in his authoritative "History of Methodism in Ireland" [Volume III, at page 21], noted that:
"Meanwhile, another and still larger chapel was erected. This was in Abbey Street, Dublin...
"One Sunday, a young man, named William DEAKER, attracted by the appearance of the new building, entered, heard Mr MAYNE preach, and at the close of the service, observing several persons retire into side rooms, followed some of them into one, which proved to be the place in which Arthur WILLIAMS met a class, of which William and James CARSON, William and Henry HENEY, and others, were members..."
In light of this excerpt, and developing the themes of kinship and potential intermarriages, it will come as no surprise to me if we were to eventually find that:
a. William CARSON was related to, and perhaps the father of, Margaret CARSON, the wife of Henry Parnell HENEY (see below).
b. William HENEY may have been Henry's older brother (see below).
c. Arthur WILLIAMS, the Class Leader, as a witness (with Henry HENEY) to the marriage in 1826 of Margaret WILLIAMS to William HENEY, was perhaps her father; and he may even have been related to Thomas Beckwith WILLIAMS, the husband of Sarah Going SIBTHORPE (see above).
Indeed, the "Minutes of Methodist Conferences in Ireland," 1865, provide some further clues:
1825 Conference (page 161):
"Q. Who are the Liquidating Committee?
"A. The Dublin Preachers, together with Messrs... Henry HENEY (second of seven),... James CARSON (sixth of seven)..."
1827 Conference (page 210):
"Q. Who are the Missionary Committee to review the concerns of the Missions at the ensuing Conference?
"A. (a list of thirteen names, and) the Secretary of the Conference, with an additional thirteen gentlemen (including)... Henry HENEY, William CARSON,..."
1829 Conference (page 264):
Ditto the above.
1829 Conference (page 265):
"Q. Who are the Chapel Building Committee, without whose previous consent obtained in writing no Chapel... whether large or small is to be erected, purchased, or enlarged, during the ensuing year?
"A. The Preachers of the Dublin Circuit, with Messrs Arthur WILLIAMS and Henry HENEY. Charles MAYNE is Secretary to the Committee."
1830 Conference (page 296):
All ditto in 1829, but omitting Henry HENEY, and adding in his stead William KENT, James DEALE and Arthur JONES.
Significantly, Henry HENEY's name does not appear again after this 1829 entry.

HENRY HENEY OF DUBLIN.
Henry HENEY was baptised at St Mary's parish Church, Dublin, 25 January 1728, aged 6 days, the son of James and Mary HENEY [irishgenealogy.ie]; he was a sibling of John (born 1725), Jane (1727), Alice (1732), Charles (1734) .
I. Henry HENEY; of Mountpleasant, City of Dublin, Esq, when he was grantor of a Deed of Assignment, dated 22 April 1818, by which he demised premises at No 12 Mountpleasant to John Barclay ALLOWAY, of the City of Dublin, [Memorial 196213, Book 727, Page 78].
Possibly the same as Henry of Upper Dominick Street? See II next below.
II. Henry HENEY; of Upper Dominick Street, City of Dublin, Gentleman, when he was grantee of an Indented Deed of Conveyance, dated 6 August 1819, by which Edward MORAN, of Thomas Street, City of Dublin, Merchant, for the sum of £375 paid by HENEY, demised to him premises in Drogheda Street, Balbriggan, County Dublin, the assets of the bankrupt James MATTHEWS [Memorial 506182, Book 768, Page 134].
Possibly the same as Henry HENEY of Abbey Street? See IV below.
III. Henry HENEY, born in Dublin, about 1777; he was buried at St Peter's Parish Churchyard, Dublin, 21 April 1847, aged 69, of Bride Street [irishgenealogy.ie]. Clearly too young to have been father of IV next.

HENRY HENEY OF ABBEY STREET, DUBLIN, MERCHANT.
IV. Henry HENEY, born about 1791 (from his age at death), and probably in Dublin; of Pitt Street, Dublin, 1815 (marriage settlements); of 62 Abbey Street, Dublin City, March 1822, one of the receivers of benefactions for the Aged Female Charity [Saunders Newsletter, 9 March]; of Abbey Street, City of Dublin, Merchant, when he was the grantor of an Indented Deed of Lease, dated 12 April 1823, by which he demised to Peter MARTIN of St Michael's Hill, Carpenter and Undertaker, a newly built dwelling house on the corner of Cook Street and St Michael's Hill [Memorial 528156, Book 780, Page 221]; ditto, when he was grantor of a Deed of Mortgage, dated 30 December 1823, by which he demised a block of land on St Michael's Hill to Christopher HODGENS of Church Street, Dublin, Rope Manufacturer [Memorial 532549, Book 787, Page 459]; probably named as Defendant in a High Court of Chancery Decree, dated 5 August 1824, as Assignee of Hopeton Butler COX (an Insolvent), and in which cause the plaintiff was Isaac SMALLMAN [Dublin Mercantile Advertiser, 18 October]; of 62 Abbey Street, 13 March 1825, when he advertised the sale by auction of a range of imported goods, including clover, carroway and onion seeds, fruit, wines and liquors, cod oil, prepared mustard, seltzer water, corkwood, etc [Dublin Mercantile Advertiser, 14 March]; as Henry HEANY, of Abbey Street, Dublin, Merchant, 1 August 1826, when he was named as a joint third party (with John SIBTHORPE, of Cork Hill, Gent) to the Deed of Marriage Settlements for Eliza SIBTHORPE and Henry POOLEY [Memorial 549550, Book 816, Page 15]; Henry was of 62 Abbey Street, Dublin, May 1827, when he was recorded as one of the receivers of subscriptions to a fund for sufferers in the late destructive fire [Dublin Morning Register, 3 May]; ditto, July 1827, as one of the receivers of benefactions for the Wesleyan Chapel in Lower Abbey Street [Saunders Newsletter, 4 July]; his letter to the editor of the Dublin Morning Register was published on 18 May 1829 concerning an earlier report incorrectly naming him as a party to proceedings in the Court of King's Bench which involved the St Patrick's Insurance Company; of 62 Abbey Street when he inserted a notice, dated 10 December 1829, concerning the affairs of John O'MEARA, an Insolvent for whom Henry was the appointed Assignee [Saunders Newsletter, 12 December].
Henry died at his house in Abbey Street, Dublin, on 31 December 1829, aged 38 years, after an illness during which he "... suffered much," and taking his "... affectionate leave of his dear companion, earnestly praying for her and their six beloved children..." [Recent Deaths, Wesleyan Methodist Magazine, 1830, page 286 - from a copy held in Edgehill College Library, Belfast, and kindly provided by the Archivist, Robin RODDIE]; Henry was buried at St Patrick's Cathedral Churchyard, Dublin, on 3 January 1830 [Cathedral Register, R.C.B. Library], late of Abbey Street, Dublin City [Prerogative Wills Index, 1830] - at that time, fellow Methodist William MAGUIRE Senior was the Sexton of the Patrick's Cathedral, and managed the burial ground (it was his son William Junior who, six years later, would marry Henry's daughter Hannah HENEY).

Henry HENEY was of Pitt Street, Dublin, when he was married, by Consistorial License, at St Werburgh's Parish Church, Dublin, 26 March 1815, to Hannah SIBTHORPE; this marriage was the subject of Settlements dated 29 March 1815, made between John SIBTHORPE, his father Henry SIBTHORPE, of Exchange Street, Dublin, Glass Merchant, Henry's eldest daughter Hannah (the bride) and Henry HEANY, of Pitt Street (the groom), with the third party (of two Trustees) including Henry PARNELL of the City of Dublin, Esq [Memorial 472225, Volume 687, Page 67].
Hannah HENEY applied for the "Relief of those Merchants whose Goods were consumed by Fire at the Custom House in Dublin" in 1835 - her claim, dated 3 October, was for loss of Eau de Cologne (24 dozen - £18) and Liqueurs (60 bottles containing 9 44/64 gallons - £9 10s), totalling £27 10s [Parliamentary Papers, Session 1837, Volume XXXIX, Page 213]; she was at Parker Hill, 13 Rathmines Mall, 1845 [Pettigrew and Oulton's Dublin Directory], the residence of her widowed mother.
Mrs Hannah HENEY was recorded at Donnybrook Road, Parish of St Peter, Dublin, in 1850 [Griffith's Primary Valuation], residing in a house with small garden, valued at £29 14s, her principal lessor being named as John SIBTHORPE, Esq (he was at Epworth Terrace, same Valuation record).
Hannah was at Rathgar Road, in May 1873, when she wrote a letter to her grand-daughter in New South Wales (in the possession of her descendant, Dr Kingsley TUGWELL, who was, by remarkable co-incidence, my late father's G.P. in Pennant Hills, in the late 1970s).
Theodore CRONHELM, in his "Reminiscence of Dublin" [from the Christian Advocate, 1889-90], wrote from Sandymount, 27 May 1889:
"My references to the personnel of the [Methodist] Society at that period are necessarily very incomplete... One honoured name, however, must be mentioned as connected with my earliest recollections of the Abbey Street congregation - I refer to Mrs HENEY (mother of my esteemed friend Henry Parnell HENEY), who, in a beautiful old age, still lives amongst us, and counts her descendants even to the fourth generation."
Hannah died at 132 Upper Rathmines, at the residence of her grandson, 29 December 1889, aged 91, widow of the late Henry HENEY [Cork Constitution, 31 December]; the death was informed by Mary HENEY, of 7 Church Avenue, present at death (relationship not stated).
Henry and Hannah had issue, six of whom were living in January 1830, including:

_________________________________________________________________________
* * * THE FOLLOWING WILL EVENTUALLY BE INCORPORATED INTO THE ABOVE * * *
From notes I have recently despatched to a descendant:
7. Miss Lucinda SIBTHORPE was buried in the Churchyard of St Patrick's Cathedral, 18 August 1834 (likewise very likely to be related, as Henry above in 1830).
8. John SIBTHORPE was a Representative of the Dublin Circuit at the Methodist Conference of 1835 [Methodist Conference Minutes].
9. John SIBTHORPE and Henry James SIBTHORPE were two of five members of a Committee of Dublin Methodists who formed a joint party to a Deed of Mortgage, dated 31 August 1840 [Volume 20, Page 190, Dublin Deeds Registry], which was granted by William MAGUIRE (Senior), concerning lands and dwelling houses in St Patrick's Street, Dublin, the deed witnessed by William MAGUIRE Junior, Solicitor, of Abbey Street, Dublin (Hannah HENEY's husband of four years) .
10. Dr Henry James SIBTHORPE, M.D., L.K.Q.G.P., Esq, died on 6 September 1876, aged 71 [Obituary notice, Primitive Wesleyan Methodist Magazine, January-February 1877, page 55], "...suddenly, at Hume Street, Dublin" [Belfast Newsletter, 8 September].
I also find, from a revised search of church records on the http://www.irishgenealogy.ie website, some additional details for Dublin SIBTHROPs:
And two others who may have been related:
4. SIBTHROP, buried 23 August 1778, from Walkers Alley.
5. Mr SIBTHROP, buried 1778, from Walchers Alley.
There were even earlier Dublin families of SIBTHORPs:
Joseph and Jane SIBTHORP had issue:
1. Ann SIBTHORP, baptised at St Audoen's Parish Church, 18 March 1716.
2. Edward SIBTHORP, baptised there on 26 January 1718.
3. SIBTHORP, buried there, 23 May 1719 (perhaps one of the above two children, or one of the parents?).
Thomas an Ellenor SIBTHORP had issue:
1. Anne SIBTHORP, baptised at St Nicholas Without, 15 September 1734.
2. Jane SIBTHORP, baptised at St Nicholas Without, 3 October 1736.

2. Stephen SIBTHORP, baptised at St Mary's Parish Church, 15 October 1756 (father Robert, but mother Mary Anne).
There were three burials in the Church Records which were not burials, but instead Confirmations:
"At a confirmation held by his Grace William, Lord Arch-Bishop of Dublin, in St Werburgh;s Church, on 13th April 1824, the following young persons were presented and confirmed: ...
"35. Sarah SIBTHORPE....12 Cork Hill.
Eliza SIBTHORPE......12 Cork Hill.

BIOGRAPHICAL ENTRIES FROM THE DICTIONARY OF IRISH ARCHITECTS, 1720-1916.
HENRY SIBTHORPE AND SON.
Decorators, glass merchants, ironmongers, plumbers, marble and stone merchants, of Dublin. According to their advertisement in The Industries of Dublin of 1888,(1) the firm was founded 'at the remote date of 1747'. In 1759 a Henry Sibthorpe was admitted a freeman of Dublin by virtue of service to a glazier named Richard Eaton; he was presumably the Henry Sibthorpe who had a glazier's business at 12 Copper Alley in 1775.(2) He was also very probably the father of another Henry Sibthorpe who was admitted a Freeman of the City of Dublin by virtue of birth as a member of the Smith's Guild at Michaelmas 1786.(3) The younger Henry had a glazier's business at 18 Exchange Street. He remained at this address until 1814, but by the following year he had changed the description of his trade to 'painter and glazier' and had moved to 12 Cork Hill. He died in 1824.(4)
The directories indicate that before his death Henry Sibthorpe had taken a son into partnership. The firm of 'Henry Sibthorpe & Son' continued to trade under this name for about a century and a half until it eventually closed in the 1970s. It remained in Cork Hill until at least 1883, first expanding into Castle Street, then acquiring a marble yard in Great Brunswick Street and building a store in Upper Exchange Street on the site where Henry Sibthorpe had had his original premises. Later in the 1880s it moved to a new showroom and offices at 33 Molesworth Street. By this time, according to The Industries of Dublin, the firm was employing 'a constant staff of about three to four hundred men' and enjoying a trade 'of colossal dimensions'. This probably represents the peak of the firm's activities, for the Great Brunswick Street marble yard was given up within ten years, making way for St Andrew's Boys' School. The store was moved from Exchange Street to Fishamble Street during the same period.
As the firm did not change its name for well over a century, it is difficult to identify the individual members of the family who were successively in charge of it. If LUKE SIBTHORPE was Henry Sibthorpe's brother, as seems possible, his family could also have been involved in it. The son who was taken into partnership by Henry Sibthorpe circa 1826 may have been the John Sibthorpe who appears fleetingly at 12 Cork Hill in Wilson's Dublin Directory for 1826 or the William Sibthorpe of Cork Hill who was a subscriber to William Stitt's The Practical Architect's Ready Assistant; or Builder's Complete Companion (Dublin, 1819). Thomas S. Sibthorpe, later a JP, was probably head of the firm in the 1860s; his addresses were given as Cork Hill, Great Brunswick Street and Leeson Park when he was elected a non-professional associate of the RIAI on 21 January 1869, having been proposed by JAMES HIGGINS OWEN and JAMES BELL , seconded by EDWARD HENRY CARSON and CHARLES GEOGHEGAN. (5) In the 1870s the firm was headed by John Sibthorpe, who died suddenly on 21 April 1878 and was buried at Mount Jerome Cemetery.(6) Later the firm was headed by another John Sibthorpe, also a JP, who became president of the Master Painter's Association of Ireland in 1902, delivering his inaugural address on 'The Connection in the Middle Ages between Architects, Painters, and Decorators'.(7) This is probably the same person as the octogenarian John Sibthorpe who was consulted by C.P. Curran when he was preparing his book on Dublin plasterwork.(8) Draughtsmen employed by the firm included H.S. Rogerson, active in the first two decades of the 20th century, and Con O'Sullivan, active in the 1930s.
After the firm closed in the 1970s, the contents of the office were thrown out. Much of this material was rescued from a skip and subsequently dispersed. Some of the drawings which were retrieved are in the Irish Architectural Archive, Acc. 78/22, Acc. 96/145, Acc. 2001/142, Acc. 2002/33; there are also some photographs of the firm's work in the Reading Room Box Files and a number of 35mm. slides of churches, Acc. 2000/46. Written material from the same source - correspondence, letter books, ledgers, receipts and other documents - dating from 1823 to 1963 is in the National Archives, Acc. 1046 (photocopy of handlist in IAA, RP.B.22.6).

LUKE SIBTHORP.
Painter and glazier, of Dublin. Luke Sibthorpe was admitted a Freeman of the City of Dublin by virtue of Birth as a member of the Smith's Guild at Michaelmas 1786;(1) it seems possible that the Henry Sibthorpe who was admitted to the franchise at the same time was his brother (see HENRY SIBTHORPE & amp; SON). He was subsequently in business as a glazier at 1 Palace St. He is recorded as carrying out some work for the Corporation and represented his guild on the Common Council of Dublin between 1808 and 1819.(2) He died on 14 March 1827. Three of his sons, Thomas, Charles and Henry J. Sibthorpe were admitted to the Dublin franchise. A fourth, Luke Homan Sibthorpe, emigrated to New South Wales. Luke Sibthorpe was a subscriber to Humphrey's Irish Builder's Guide (1813) and to William Stitt's The Practical Architect's Ready Assistant; or Builder's Complete Companion (Dublin, 1819).
