Looking for information about Doris Byrne born 1920's Dublin married Brendan Oneill 1950's in Dublin may have moved to England
-
Are you sure that these two people are not still living. Rootschat does not allow details of those possibly alive
-
You say "may" have moved to England. What info do you have to support that?
Was she definitely born 1920's? When was he born? Did either have middle names as there are a number of death entries that could be them and also a number of O'Neill births with mmn Byrne
More info needed but you need to be careful not to name anybody who could still be alive

Doris Byrne was born 1920's in Dublin she married Brendon Oneill 1950's in Dublin Doris was in Blackburn Lancashire in 1949 but returned to Dublin I do not know if she and Brendon are still alive that is why I am searching for information
-
Doris was in Blackburn 2yrs before she married in Dublin so what info do you have to support them living in England after 1951?
There are no deaths for her name matching her birthyear in England up to 2007 which is when the GRO index covers to and none on the partial index from 2008 onwards. We have to assume she is still alive if they came to England or that she remained in Dublin after she married
-
Doris was in Blackburn Lancashire in 1949 on her own she gave birth to a son who was adopted the same year the next information we have is her marriage to Brendon in Dublin we have no idea what happened to them that is why we are hoping someone will recognise the name thank you Carolew for your help

Still searching for Doris Byrne born 15/1/1928 Dublin married Brendan Oneill 1951 in Dublin we still think Doris and Brendan may have left Ireland
-
Have you tried looking in the GRO index for deaths. As an example I just started at 2019 to work backwards .... this is all the information you will get on an index
O'NEILL, DORIS Year of birth 1928
GRO Reference: Death Q3/2018 in SURREY
https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/login.asp
Have you also checked wills. We can only search in the same free databases as you

Looking for wills and obituary s is a good idea
Do you know her parents and siblings names .?
I suppose you have built a tree ...it would help if any relatives married someone with less common names
Even with DNA tests its hard to research irish family connections with common names
