Hi,

Thank you so much for all of the help!

Yeah, definitely. I suppose every bit of information helps. I guess that if someone passed in hospital it is harder as generally there was not a family member there that we could use to tell it is the right one. Also I imagine their address isn't always given.

I think the information is even more important when someone has a name that is common as there were probably quite a few people with the name making it even harder to determine!

That all looks good.
You can see now the kind of information needed to find a death.
Age (when born)
Address
Married, widowed or single
If widowed from what date (date of spouses death)
Names of possible informants

Even with all that it’s sometimes still not possible to find the correct cert if the person died in hospital it can be impossible to be sure it’s the one you need.

Hi, I thought I had sent a reply earlier but nothing has come up.

Yes, definitely. Especially if the person had a name that was quite common and I suppose that if the person died in hospital, their family members generally wouldn’t have been with them so it’ll be hard to identify whether it was definitely them or not.

P.S: Just saw my original reply above. I just didn't directly reply to what you had said.

There are a couple of newspaper reports about trespass on Annie's land. In one, it gives the address as Coole, Kilbricken, so I think entry 436 here: https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/deaths_returns/deaths_1952/04491/4179523.pdf
is John's death. 1st February 1952.

Hi,

Do you know where I might be able to access the newspaper reports?

Thank you!
