Is that the Peter KIRWAN who's death was registered in 1957?

Peter KIRWAN (age 82) Jan./Mar.1875 Drogheda volume 2 page 200

If so, the informant may have given an incorrect age, he could have been born elsewhere or his birth could have been registered under a different name.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
