3 famous people call Cabinteely their birthplace

Giles Cooper (British playwright (1918-1966)) is the best known by our measure: Wikipedia has an article about them in 7 languages. Next come Colin Stafford-Johnson and John Fitzgerald.

3 people born in Cabinteely have an English Wikipedia article that confirms the town as their birthplace. Wikidata places 4 people here; the rest aren’t listed because their article names somewhere else, or no town.

Among its famous people, writers and artists: 1 of the 3. That is 33% of the town’s list, against 12% across Irish towns.

Giles Cooper, born in 1918. The youngest on the list was born in 1984.

People Wikidata records as born in a place inside Cabinteely’s neighbourhood (its Census 2022 Small Areas), a hospital or district within it included, whose English Wikipedia article agrees. People who only lived here, adult performers and people known mainly for crimes aren’t listed. In Dublin, Cork, Limerick, Galway and Waterford a birth recorded only as the city stays on the city’s page; a neighbourhood lists only people recorded as born in it.

Their Wikidata birthplace may be a county or just “Ireland”, a townland or village we don’t list, another town, or missing, or their article may give no birthplace. We only list people both sources agree on; editing Wikidata or Wikipedia changes this page at the next refresh.
