Murphy burial
« on: Thursday 23 June 16 04:09 BST (UK) »
Can someone please  help me find a burial for a Francis Murphy died in Tullamore Kerry in 1889.
Are there any sort of records I can check through online for these.

Hi Ann, the only thing I have been able to see is an Ireland Civil Registration Deaths Index (via Anc****) for a Francis Murphy age 49 (birth year approx. 1840) Registration District: Tullamore, Date of Registration: Jan-Mar 1889.

However, while there is a Tullamore in Kerry, I think the registration district refers to Offaly.

Perhaps someone more knowledgeable than me would be able to clarify this.

Do you have any other details about your Francis? Date / Place of birth? marriage? Where you got the details about his death?
Researching: Cronin / Nolan - Gortadrislig, Kerry
Finn/Clifford - Callinafercy and Scort, Kerry
Spillane - Milltown
Also:- Byrne / Tyrrell - Dublin

There is a Tullamore and a Tulla More in Kerry both in the Registrar's District of Ballylongford.

However if you try to search using Ballylongford it doesn't appear to exist, I think it is an error and should read Listowel.
But I still don't see a death for a Francis Murphy in that timeframe, of course even if it was there it wouldn't tell you where he is buried.
