Are you aware of any death/funeral notice in local papers which might refer to burial at Cloyne Cathedral.?   The relevant burial register appears to be unavailable.
The Gravestone Inscriptions of the Cathedral Cemetery of Cloyne Co Cork Author Richard Henchion is my source for the details I gave you

Thank you, ballydw.
Can I just be clear . I am not at all familiar with Cloyne. When you say the Cathedral Cemetery, does that refer to the Church of Ireland Cathedral or St Colman's RC cemetery.? I understand that the Church of Ireland cemetery has both Protestant and Roman Catholic burials.
I am very grateful for your help.
The Cathedral Cemetery is COI but has both denominations buried there i.e Roman Catholic also

If he died in Cork there is a chance he wasn't registered, there was Martial law in Cork from Dec 1920 until July 1921. People didn't make unnecessary trips or co-operate with authority if possible.

Where is he buried?
Thanks Sinann this sounds plausable given the circumstances at the time. Yes he is buried in Republican Plot in Holy Rosary Cemetery Midleton Co Cork as posted by LH

Did he die "in action" perhaps away from home  :-\

Is his the only name on the headstone?
Didnt die in action but from ill health. His is only name on headstone. Thank you

John Joseph O Shea born 20th May 1885 reg district Midleton Co Cork. He died 22nd March 1921. He was in the military & on his headstone his name is shown as Sean O Seagda (Irish version of name)
I have searched for a death record under all different versions of his name with no result. Thank you

It looks like she's unmarried as of the 1950 census, but she's Margaret Murray in her mother's obituary from 1965.  https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-boston-globe/179642044/

There's a gap in one of the databases for Massachusetts marriage records from 1955-1966, and I don't see her in there, so she might have married in that time frame.
Thank you for this information
