Thank you so much CB53, that was fast! That's them the right parents. I couldn't find it on family search. Just need to find the children now!
Thanks again

I can see one child on the 1940 US census , born 1939 so may well be living so I cannot give details. You could check familysearch later on to have a look ( if you don't have Ancestry ).

Yes she is still alive but i think they had more children after 1940. Going to try and find if this was their son, BYRNE JAMES P. died Friday, October 24, 2014. Beloved son of Rebecca and James Byrne. Thanks for all your help.

Yes, i have them, i requested the photo that is now attached to the grave. That is how i know there were more children because the daughter in 1940 census never married or had children!
Thanks again
