marmalade

500 apples would make a couple of gallons, not a pint. Even if they were crab apples it would still be a few pints.

It says in the census he lived in O'Connell Street, so it's presumably here: maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,625421,593310,11,9 Edit: Or possibly not. No matter how you count it, I don't think you'd get Brewery Lodge to be house 16, especially since the buildings return says it's a shop. Mind you, I don't see anything else marked as either a brewery, a bottling plant, or a jam factory (his other occupations), so maybe this is it and he just lives over the shop instead of in a swanky house.

It was a long wait for marmalade: sugar rationing didn't end until 1953.

How did the oranges get in from Spain?
