I need some help with a couple of entries here please guys..
Box 1 - is that St Paricks Hospital?
Box 2 - after Last of 13, last row? I've never seen comments like this with the name but this page in the registry is full of them.
Box 7 - COD , Gastro ???, Certified.
Here is the link to the page if it helps

Thanks in advance

St ?? Late of 13
Hospital ?Grants How? (address where she was living - same for all the entries.)
Box 7 (CoD) Gastro
Enteritis
Certified
I hope that is nearly right.
If posting something like this again, it is a great help if you can post the headings of the various columns - helps in the interpretations ;) ;)
(I see the headings on the attached link. Easier if you can include them on the snip! :))
;D Bit tough calling the poor mite a spinster at the age of 3 months isn't it! ::)
I see the same hospital is mentioned several times on the linked records . . . doesn't look like Partick in any of them to me . . . :-\ Can't think which saint it would be though. :-\
Cheers, Wiggy

Mercer's Hospital perhaps but that wouldn't have St. before the name.
-
Doesn't have an 'i' in it either. I am trying to think of a saint with 'in' as part of it - at least I think 'in'.
Is there a St Linus or something like that? Actually it seems there is! (Thanks Google) I wonder if that is it? :-\
Don't know if there is a St Linus Hospital though. ;D
-
How about St Ninion?
My husband just looked at it and said it looks like it says Minster?
-
That was my first guess too - Minster . . .but shortened. :-\ :-\ :-\
St Ninian is a possibility. :). Better than Linus!!
Don't. Know really. Maybe the OP can narrow it down a bit! ;D

I just looked at the whole page of deaths,about 75% died in the same hospital,but not one of them is legible.........DOH >:(
-
My reaction too. ;D ::)

Not just that page I've looked at quite a few pages and still can't read it.
Not sure if this lists all the 1940s Dublin hospitals but it's a list at least

Thanks for the list Sinann, now I wonder if it says St Vincent?

The Reg district is Dublin South, so south of the river

Once again . . . That is the only one which I would have picked from that list.
(Thanks for the list sinann.)
For those from down under, (me) is that good or bad, sinann! ;)

I think St.Kevin's might be correct, this is the same informant T or F Purcell.
The hospital is written twice on each cert, under the date and under the infromant
-
I think the hospital is St Kevin's.
Scroll forward a few pages and the writing is a little clearer:

Look at entry 119 in particular.
It became St James' Hospital: http://www.stjames.ie/AboutUs/History/ (http://www.stjames.ie/AboutUs/History/)
