The headstone clearly wasn't put up until some time after the mother died so it's quite possible they got the year incorrect for Eileen.

Just a transcription error.

Same transcription error on Find a Grave so, you would need to touch the numbers on the stone to be sure

Many thanks to everyone for their efforts so far - it is really appreciated.

I have copies of the marriage and death certs for Eileen but this is the first time I've seen the headstone so that's helpful.

I still can't find any links to the children who would have of course been McNamara.  I've tried LDS/Ancestry/Find My Past but apart from confirming that Mick and Eileen had four children there is nothing more. Any suggestions?

In first post you say you believe Eileen died around 1961... If you had Cert, better to say so. Saves people using time looking for what you already had.

What other stuff do you have?

Hi, just to clarify my first post - I'm looking for descendants of Mick and Eileen. Only info I have is that there four of them, two boys;
R b.1941
J b.1942
And two girls
M b.1947
J b.1950

Given their ages some may have passed on and/or have been married but I can't find anything.
