Katie Cody

[sgrollitt]

Yes Catherine (Katie) Cody was born in 1912 in Inistioge to Edward and Margaret Cody. Edward was one of the eight children of Thomas and Bridget Cody. Katie died sometime between 1962 and 1989, probably in Inistioge

I posted that information for LH 

Is Edward buried in a church or public graveyard?
Is it possible to find out who is buried in that grave from church/public records?

When the photograph was published, was that in her local area?

[sgrollitt]

Hi - another family member took us into the graveyard in Inistioge between the Catholic and Protestant churches. He showed us the gravestone where Edward Cody is buried, but the metal plaque on the stone is missing.

The photograph of Katie Cody from about 1951 at Nowlan Park was published in January 1989 in The Nightingale.

What is/was ‘The Nightingale’?

[sgrollitt]

It looks like The Nightingale is a journal/serial published in Inistioge/The Rower, County Kilkenny by the G.A.A. Club

Have you tried contacting the club to see if anyone has any memories of her?

[sgrollitt]

I just contacted them - good idea, thanks.

Good luck

They don't have that information. I can't find Katie Cody's death in either Ireland, Scotland, England, or Wales. Perhaps she did marry later in life. She was certainly single in 1962 when she would have been about 50.
