Gravestone Tempo

[boobah]

I am looking for the gravestone of John Savage who died 4th August 1909  Age 75 years.
He married and lived in Kinsale, but is buried in Tempo.
I am curious to know why Tempo when his wife Helena who he was happily married to was buried in Kinsale with siblings.

Can anyone help ?

John Savage was born in Co. Fermanagh according to 1901 census so perhaps he wanted to be buried there or was back in Fermanagh visiting when he died and the family decided to bury him there. My grandfather's aunt was visiting from Canada when she died and was buried here in Ireland with her husband's family.

Thanks Aghadowey, I have been trying the census 1901 and could not find him.Don`t know how you did. Maybe I am narrowing it down too much.
Much appreciated will look up www as advised.
Cheers Tempo.

cananyone explain why when I go onto National Archives of Ireland and move on to 1901 census for Kinsale Urban and key in the info which I know is on the census,and click on "search" it keeps coming up with no results. Am I searching in the wrong place.I have tried numerous times with all sorts of changes.  Boo

Boobah, just click on the link Aghadowey put in her post and it will take you straight to the census return she found for you.
If you then put a tick in 'see all information' it will expand to show you the details of the family

May help new researches.
When filling in search boxes put in min. info.
e.g.    Savage
           Cork
           Male

I spent hours trying to find census info. filling in extra data. With no results
Hope this helps.

not sure why you are getting no results... I just tried both the 1911 and 1901 census for male/Savage in Cork an get plenty of results - about 80.

The link to the census is http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/
 
see screenshot below for the search I used :

Boobah,

I can look for the gravestone. What religion was he? I know he is not buried in the RC cemetery, so I know not to look there.

[boobah]

Trazz, that is very good of you. John Savage died 1909 and gravestone Kinsale says he was 75 years.
He was Church of Ireland or Methodist not sure which but definitely not R.C.
Was he buried in a family grave up there I wonder, which would give me more info. re family.  I am intrigued really.
Best of luck.    Boobah
