Patrick Fanning 1864-1906 was the son of Billy Fanning and Catherine Fogarty of Clondoty Co Tipperary.
He was the brother of Ned Fanning of Shanbally House and also of Joseph and Senator Michael Fanning who also lived and worked in Dublin.
Patrick lived at 23 North Strand Rd Dublin and was a very successful and wealthy publican.
The assistants he employed were most likely nephews, certainly the O’Donnell and Bannon boys were related.
Patrick’s brother Joseph ended up buying the premises. In 1923 when he was selling the pub it was advertised and described in The Irish Times.

This is wonderful, so delighted to get all this information as my great great grand mother Anne Molloy (nee Fogarty) originally of Lisheenataggart is an Aunt of Patrick Fanning. Patrick’s mother Catherine and my great great grandmother Anne were sisters.
thanks again for this gem!! another link in the family tree completed
Hi Anne,
Glad you enjoyed the site and that it helped with your family tree.
I am wondering if you can give me any information on Catherine Fanning nee Fogarty’s parents and siblings and also their children.
Do you know where these Fogartys lived? I also don’t have a birth date or place for Catherine Fanning nee Fogarty.
I have been trying to piece together the connections between Fannings, Evistons and Moloneys in Clonomuckoge More near Thurles and it is possible a number of cousins emigrated to Australia hence my interest in the nieces and nephews of the Fogartys.
Have you heard of any of your ancestors coming out to Australia? or any connections with Evistons or Moloneys from Clonomuckoge?
I am also looking at how Wm Fanning, Catherine’s husband, came to live at Clondoty as there were no Fannings listed there in Griffith’s Valuations in 1849 but there were Fogartys.
Any info much appreciated and if you have any questions for me I am happy to help if I can. Kathleen
