Title: Bronx death lookup please
Post by: ambow on Monday 15 March 10 09:51 GMT (UK)

I am trying to find the death record for Julia Bowe nee Byrne.She is in the 1930 New York census but never returned to the U.K. with my father in 1936.He said she died of a brain tumour.
Her D.O.B. is 03/07/1902 and she was Dublin born.
Their address was in the Bronx.They never lived anywhere else in the U.S.
There is no record of her death in the Irish or U.K. B.M.D.
Any help would be much appreciated.

There are very few death records that are searchable. The following site is one for New York City Deaths up to 1948 but I don't see her listed.  :(

Cannot see her listed on the SSDI either:-

This Julia seems like she is my grandfathers sister. She left Dublin for America in her youth. Originally from New Street and born in 1902.  Have more family information if you would like to contact me
