Title: Dublin Burial
Post by: boop on Friday 20 November 15 18:41 GMT (UK)
I wonder if anyone can help me. I am trying to find the burial place of Jane Knowles O'Hara who died on 11th December 1921 in Dublin. Any advice or help would be most appreciated. I have looked on all the online sites that I can find but nothing on them. Could anyone tell me also where I could contact for a death certificate.

Jane is buried in Glasnevin cemetery - you can view details for a few small fee on their website http://www.glasnevintrust.ie/genealogy/

You can order research death certs from the GRO, see the IrishGenealogy website http://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/civil-records/help/i-want-to-get-a-copy-of-a-certificate-what-do-i-do

May be of interest John Smellie built Fairfield Avenue for his Dublin Dockyard Company ship workers.

What a good photo of Fairfield Avenue. The person I am researching lived at 5 Fairfield Road. Do you think they would have been the same type of houses.

I'm pretty certain it's the same road - the name seems to have changed at some stage. A c1930s map of Dublin shows the lower half of that street as Fairfield Road, and the upper half as Moy Elta Road (as per the modern google map).
