Hello.

Thanks again for the images, transcripts and grave site number forwarded - much appreciated.

I'll be contacting the cemetery staff for further information as the website -

doesn't seem to have the Armstrong's listed, yet.

Hello,

Thank-you for forwarding that information so promptly.

The information I would like checked/confirmed is what is inscribed on the tombstone.

Our Collection holds records confirming the death of Captain Thomas Armstrong - 18 December 1847 and his widow Harriot Armstrong - 17 May 1858, age 83, Dublin.

We have no/limited information about a number of their children though we do hold some court papers regarding the Armstrong v Armstrong case, which was dismissed in favour of George Knox Armstrong.

Regards
Maria

Graveyards and Gravestones / Armstrongs at Mount Jerome Cemetery
« on: Thursday 19 May 16 01:48 BST (UK)  »
Dear RootsChat Forum,

I am currently managing/researching the family archive of Martin John O’Dell Armstrong (Melbourne, Australia) whose great-great-grandparents are interred at the Mt. Jerome Cemetery, Dublin.

In 1908, a great uncle visited the cemetery and photographed the burial site showing a cluster of headstones. Unfortunately, the inscriptions are not clearly visible. Image attached.

Is it possible to have the information checked against any records and if still standing, from the headstone itself?

The couple are, Captain Thomas Armstrong (d.18.12.1847) and Harriot Armstrong (d.17.05.1858). Harriot of Ennis Co.

I have visited the Ireland Genealogy Projects website, amongst others, but was unsuccessful in finding any information.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Maria
