Sorry forgot to mention, he was C of I

His death notice in the Freeman's Journal  refers to him being "aged 64, John Boshell, senior". It also refers to internment in the Catholic cemetery then names Prospect (which was the former name for Glasnevin). No address nor relatives noted.

The newspapers also have  other mentions of a John Boshell senior and junior, trading as John Boshell & Son, provision merchants at Bow Street.

A July 12th 1862 death notice for a John Boshell Esq of 5 Bow Street, but no further details.

At a much later date, 1900, a death notice for an Ellen Parker notes she was second eldest daughter of the late John Boshell of 5 Bow Street and sister of the late James Boshell of Fairlands, Navan. Ellen was wife of a Patrick Parker (they look to have married in 1867).

A Miss Julia Boshell died in 1872 at the home of her uncle, who was apparently James Boshell, Fairlands. She was buried at Glasnevin.

I see from the index that it is a extended grave (more than one person buried) now it may be a common grave with unrelated people buried in it or was this explained to you ?
I had this problem with one of my greatgrandfathers 1881 as the search would'nt let me get any other info other than a standard search.luckily i live in Dublin and went to the office and the young lady at the desk wrote out the details of who else was buried there turned out it was a grave used in famine times and several people were buried in it but that my great grandfathers son purchased the grave in 1859 and was used only by the family after that date in total 14 burials 5 of which are mine the rest may have been buried without coffins which would explain how there was room for more.
Have you tried to purchase the extended grave readout online details on the site.
