Hi. My name is Helen Timmins. My dad is Laurence (Christy) Timmins. his name was mis-spelt on registration of his birth. His father was Tom Timmons. His grandfather was Laurence Timmons and his grandmother was Julia. They are buried in Glendalough, behind the tower, along with my dads infant brother (Tom). Laurence Timmons was indeed married before and had a daughter Sarah but my dad has no recollection of meeting her. They lived in Greystones before moving to Rathdrum. Laurence and Julia worked for people in a big house at the entrance to Rathdrum. When my grandfather married he moved in with them in the gardeners cottage (I think Julia had died at that point) Laurence lived with Tom and Elizabeth Timmons until he died. My dad remembers him well!!
Dad still visits the grave from time to time (he's 73 now)

Julia died in 1937 of heart failure & cardiac disease her son John registered the death.Sarah died in 1984 aged 91 outliving all as far as we know all her younger siblings.
Helen its a shame that you & Lizzie don't get in touch it would have been nice to "talk" about family.

Hi, yes Julia died 3rd sept 1937 and Laurence died 4th sept 1956. They're buried together near the tower in glendalough. Dad is in the process of putting a new headstone up with both their names on it, and baby tom who died in the 1940s. We were down there last week, my kids love grandad telling his 'olden days' stories!!!!I don't know if Sarah outlived all her siblings.... Over the next couple of weeks I'll try to get dad to put down on paper all the names, etc..... His sister Nuala will be over during the summer too so I'll pick her brains too. Will email you when I get to do this.
