Help with a MYSTERY - Ireland/England/South Africa

[ClonmanyGenealogy]

Found out this evening that Philip died in 1950 in SOUTHAMPTON and not Wolverhampton.  Am currently in the process of ammending the other threads I have posted on.  Thank you to all who have gone out of their way to assist me to date.  It is much appreciated.

Also, his wife is possibly a Kathleen M Mitchell (O'Rourke) as advised by Dave Francis on another thread.  This concurs with my father's first suggestion of O'Rourke as Philip's wife.  Marriage details given were the year 1950.

Apologies for the confusion - trying to work with my 84yo granduncle who is getting a bit confused unfortunately.

__________________________________________________________________-

Am delighted to have made so much progress and thanks again to all that have helped me so far.  Am now on the trail again of their two sons....born perhaps just before the marriage in 1950.  My Dad reckons that they are the same ages as him and his brother (they were born in 1944 and 1946).
