Bart,

His younger brother Patrick was in the Irish Free State Army for a time, possibly Military Police. Could Michael of started his career this way?

There was a Michael McLaughlin found in the Royal Artillery Attestations 1883-1942, who served in WW2 with a Service number 1779811.

I checked out the attestation which was dated 1941. Unfortunately there is no date or place of birth.

I checked out the 1921 census. The Michael McLoughlan record is a soldier in the Connaught Rangers born Westport, Mayo. My relative was born in Castlebar but spent a large proportion of his childhood in Swineford therefore looks unlikely to be the same person. Thanks for searching.

I’m trying to trace what became of Michael McLoughlin born 1903 Castlebar, Mayo. His parents were John McLoughlin and Norah Mullin. Family history recalls him as a career Soldier who was killed by a sniper in Palestine at the end of WW2. I don’t know what regiment he was in but have a photo of him in uniform. The only record of a Michael McLoughlin death in Palestine is for a constable in the Palestine Police dated 29/07/1941 at Jerusalem and the associated grave at Mount Zion Catholic Cemetery. No service numbers are recorded but the age is right. Is there any way I can find out more information/ full death record to establish if this is the same person?

Patrick’s birthday is confirmed from a baptismal record held by his daughter as 17/07/1904.
His father John was a Journeyman Printer / Compositer.

Sorry, only record I have found with his birth date is 1939 register.
He was married in 1929 and is shown as 25 on the certificate.
1911 census of Ireland has his birth about 1904.
Maybe that’s why I ruled out the 1972 death record with birth date of 25/02/1905. I will ask his daughter to confirm the date of birth.

Heywood,

I thought I’d bought a copy of that cert from the GRO but can’t find it in my file. Looks like I will have to order again.
 I have limited the Search to Liverpool but he had family in Prestwich and Warrington and Ireland.
