Hi yes. one of the Nagle boys married a Gavan and one married an Obrien. The gavans were also wine and spirit and tea merchants. my great great grandmother was the daughter of bridgid Gavan she married thomas obrien and he inherited the gavan business. I have photos that my great great grandmother bought here when she came to Australia in 1866. They were also related to Hoynes who were wine and spirit merchants in Rathmines the building still exists, they all lived long lives and kept the stories alive. USA relatives are amazed at what we kept!
