Looking for some information on Patrick O Shaughnessy who worked as a Railway Guard / Porter in the early 1900s.
He was originally from Kildare, but by 1901 he and his family were in Dublin. I persume he was working in Huston Station as both a Railway Guard and Porter, but i'm not too sure, and i don't know where i would find out.
Thank you in advance for any help given.

Thank you so much for this Eilleen and Michael.
Its okay about the certificates, i have a few of them already.
Would it be possible to find out any information on which train station he worked at, or any photos?
Thank you.

So by the time of Joseph's marriage to Connie in 1930 Patrick was a labourer, the railway strike must have had an impact and he changed professions.
