Research Interests
I am a social historian of poverty and welfare in Ireland and Britain, contextualised in the transatlantic world. My publications to date have examined begging and alms-giving in pre-Famine Ireland, charitable societies in 19th-c Dublin and Belfast, women and paid work in 19th and 20th-c Dublin (with particular regard to charwomen), murder in 19th-c Ireland, humane societies in Ireland and Britain. I have also published editions of documents relating to the history of Catholic female religious and a Methodist charity in late-18th-c Dublin.
