Individual Details
Seamus Robert GALVIN
(29 Jul 1904 - Apr 1993)
According to a short article about Seamus's father in the Irish Examiner of 25 April 1936 [five years before Seamus's father died], "two of his sons" [although it appears he only had two, i.e. Seamus and John] who were doing Medicine left their University to go into their father's nurseries where they now assist him".
In 1949, while still involved in the family business, Seamus became a director of the Portmarnock Country Club in Co. Dublin where his brother, John, was also a director. It is not known where he was living at this point but at some stage he moved from Co. Roscommon to Park Cottage, Wexford where he and his father ran a branch of the family's tree nursery. In 1976, Park Cottage was sold and Seamus moved from Wexford to Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin where he lived for the rest of his life. He never married.
