CAn you help me to read this death certificate

[rosanne]

Can you help me with the address ( I think) on this death certificate - under occupation.
 

Also cause of death.
 
Thanks

Cause of death is Phthisis Pulmonalis - that's tuberculosis to you and me.  I'm working on the occupation (she's a trained nurse of something!)

I think it says "Trained Nurse of Dacklen [or Dacklin], Carrick on Shannon"

[rosanne]

So do you think Dacklin is a place or street name?

Any idea about the two letters at the end of Occupation? UD? What does it mean?

Thanks for your eyes.

Looks like Dacklin - the dot over the 'i' touches the bottom loop of the 'f' above.

A check of the SeanRuad site at:
http://www.thecore.com/seanruad/
finds
Dacklin, a townland of 191 acres, in Co Roscommon, Barony of Boyle, Civil Parish Killummod, Poor Law Union Carrick on Shannon, Province Connaught.

PS: The doctor who certified the death seems to be Percy J. Duncan MD

You don't know what this means. It means I can link her to a grandfather who until this minute was just a guess.

I want to cry for joy.

Can you read this street?

Roseanne,

A map which shows where the townland of Dacklin was can be seen at:

Street looks like Beachey.  A check of Multimap finds a Beechey Road in Bournemouth.

I thought it looked like Beachey too.

I have been hoping to find a link to Ireland besides my hunch. I have a Johnston Maxwell from Roscommon who is a farmer whom I believe is Ethel's paternal grandfather. This seems to add weight to my hunch. Now if I can only find them in 1891!

Any ideas on U?D? or whatever the initials are?
