Hi
Just in case anyone else is researching the same family, if you have James McGuire born 1873 then he is great grandfather of my wife. He was buried in Feb 1939 in Edenderry but I need to confirm everything. His father was Patrick McGuire but I don't know who his mother is.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Darren

Hi Darren,
I was in Edenderry yesterday checking the COI cemetery and noticed the RC cemetery on the way into town. Quite a big cemetery and very busy (with 'live' people!!)
I can take a walk around to check on Maguire's and post whatever I find. Might be of some use to those with Edenderry relatives.

Hi Darren
Had a walk around, with the 'missus' (Anne) but only found
Thomas Mc Guire, St Mary's rd
26/3/1964 (86)
wife; Brigid; 29/3/1969 (91)
We must have missed James headstone. It's a very large cemetery and I don't think I'll make it over again, before my 'Hip' replacement operation!!!
Sorry about that, but I will keep it in mind.

Hi Jack
Thank you very much for taking the time to look for James in the cemetary, I believe Thomas is related as i've heard mention of him when speaking to my wife's aunt. Might do a bit of digging around Thomas and Brigid.
The very best of luck for your operation, hope it works out well for you.
Regards and thanks
Darren
