She left an administration of a will.

From the CIGO Guide to Irish Calendars of Wills and Administrations of 1931-

BUTLER Bridget Clara (91) 8 June   Administration of the Estate of Bridget Clara Butler late of Rosemary Street Roscrea County Tipperary Spinster who died 19 January 1931 granted at Limerick to William M. Maher Auctioneer   Effects £1,289 7s. 2d.

KH,

You might also be interested in these two inserts for administration of will for Mary Butler (her elder sister) who died in 1930. The first was proved on 12th January and Bridget died in the District Hospital on 19th January. Note the unadministered estate later granted to William M. Maher Auctioneer.

Maybe you have this but they're on the 1911 census with an oldest sister Jane.

Thank you KG. Dang you have now elliminated Bridget as mine. OK now I will be moving backwards from  a 1918 to 1940  death from a Jan 1865 birth. She was such a hopeful too.
