Glasnevin childrens paupers graves 1930's
« on: Tuesday 11 October 16 23:09 BST (UK) »
If someone could point in the right direction I would really appreciate it!!!!  I am looking for the graves of my mom's brothers. Both died in the late 1930's. She's pretty sure they were buried in Glasnevin. One was only a day old and the other was 3 years old (Patrick and Michael Smith..... I know, I know...some of the most common names;-). I've checked the records and unfortunately I can't find graves for them so I was just wondering if there are any mass/paupers graves??  Not sure what happened to children who passed away this young in the 1930's. Pretty sure the 3 year old (Michael) was buried. Not sure about Patrick. They were from inchicore at the time. Parents were Patrick and katherine (sometimes Catherine) Smith (pelly). 

Thank you!!!!!

At least you now have an exact date to work from for Patrick and he does not appear to be buried in Glasnevin nor Bluebell so you will have to try Mt Jerome contact details below

Strangely enough Michael Pelly died 1940 218 Keogh Sq buried Glasnevin with address Kehoe Sq
no 148 here

though my wife is from Bluebell area she said there is a graveyard in Goldenbridge area which i think was used  by the troops stationed  in Kehoe Barrack's not sure when this graveyard closed.

edited to add childrens graves may not be marked on this search so appointment and death cert needed

it would probably be better to ring Glasnevin to see did they allow infant burials in Goldenbridge.

Thank you so much!!!  This was some great info!!!  You guys are so great at this!!  One more favor since you are so good at this😀.... my grandfather was Patrick A. Smith (middle name I believe was Augustus). He died approximately in 1959. My mom just remembers she was around 14 or 15 (she was born in 1945). I've been to Dublin to the registrars office(where you can get copies of the civil records) and I've found nothing. He was living at 248 clogher rd crumlin at the time of his death. If anyone could find anything that would be so wonderful!!!!  Thank you so much again!!!!
