I wanted to resurrect my search for both James Campbell Cameron and Isabella Mooney. To date nothing has materialised on either death. Are there any local records for Louth?

Continuing with the Existing LOUTH thread (duplicate threads cause confusion and extra work).
It may be that the deaths are too recent to be online.

Why do you think either James or Isabella returned to Louth? Alan J.C. Cameron birth registered 1921 in Louth district but it's possible Isabella had simply gone back home to have the baby (the Mooneys lived at Palace St.).

Were there other children born between the first 2 children and Alan (quite a gap)?

Alan was the only one born of parents James and Isabella.

First child, Jessie Fraser Cameron, born 1 Oct.1916 in Cork and died there 4 months later ("first one comes any time, others take nine months" as my grandmother used to say)
Birth: https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1916/01324/1546878.pdf
Death: https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_returns/deaths_1917/05218/4443648.pdf

Second child born 1918 in Belfast and died following day-
Birth: https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1918/01290/1534548.pdf
Death: https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_returns/deaths_1918/05197/4435893.pdf

Which leaves a gap between 1918-1921.

Added- 59 Camden St., Belfast listed as tenements in 1924 directory.

Aghadowey, this is fascinating information and only goes to show that revisiting a previous posting sometime does throw up new information. Thank you so much.

It was actually just a matter of searching for children with father 'Cameron' and mother 'Mooney' so not at all difficult to find those births.

When I referred back to my notes contained in Family Tree Maker software, I found this....

James Cameron was first noted in Dublin Workhouse on the Indoor Relief Registrar, he was discharged after a few days there on 20th Feb 1906. He was then picked up in the 1911 census records as a driver for the RIC based at Cork military barrack.

When married he lived at 47, Capel Street, Dublin. The marriage was witnessed by Susan Cameron

J. Cameron, Victoria Barracks in Cork is age 22 in 1911 so born c1889-

You said in first post on this thread "James Campbell Cameron from Glasgow b. 1886" so why are you sure the 1911 J. Cameron is James Campbell Cameron?

[TonyMcGartland]

Well I cannot be positive. He was born in 1886 for sure, I thought, maybe wrongly that age in Census Records is not always correct.
