Notes
a. Note:   It seems that William came directly to Waterford with the British Army in the early 1890's. He would appear to have transferred to the Curragh sometime later and left the Army to set up a Barber business in Limerick Lane, Newbridge, Co Kildare.
 He moved to the Curragh in 1901 where he set up a private Hairdressing business in the old timber building that housed the British Post Office ( a new brick building was then used as the Post office).
 In an unusual quirk of history, Wm Joseph's great grandson Fintan Darling opened a new Post office in the building that now houses the Hairdressing business that Wm Joseph moved to in 1936 after the timber building was destroyed by fire. This new post office was opened on 22nd July 2019.
