Hi. I am a member of a history society in Castlehaven in County Cork. We are trying to track down a William Henry who died here in Castlehaven on 20th November 1920 during a typhoid outbreak. We know that he was married and we know that he was the Farm Steward on the Drishane Farm here in the local village, Castletownshend. The owner of this farm at that time was Edith Somerville who was a well-known author and wrote the Irish RM which was also successful as a TV series. Edith mentioned in her diaries that she visited William's widow (whose namewe do not know) a few times up to February 1921 but the widow then disappeared and they did not hear from her again.                     
                                                                                                                                                I found a family tree on Ancestry that listed a William Henry that died in County Sligo on 20th November 1920 (same date). I cannot find a death for a William Henry in Sligo in November 1920 and I am wondering if it might be the same person. There was a William Henry who married Mary Ann Black in 1907 in Dromard and they had one daughter called Marguerita at the time of the 1911 census when they lived in Hazlewood Demesne in Calry. A  son, William, was born in 1916.  When I look at the 1943 wedding certificate of William's daughter, Marguerita, to Thomas Lockhart William's job was described as a Land Steward. We know from the 1911 census that Marguerita was born in England so they did move around. Does this mean anything to anybody. Would it be possible that our Castlehaven William Henry was from County Sligo.
