Just looking at 1939. There was a Henry McKinley, no middle name listed, labourer, death in Mullingar, Westmeath in 1939, but it was signed by someone from the hospital he was in at time, so not obvious if it could have been Henry Hugh McKinley.

However, what makes it more of a possibility, perhaps, is that a Henry Hugh McKinley married a Mary Costello in Mullingar in 1942 (a number of children then born to them in the area). Perhaps the same Henry Hugh McKinley born in 1913.

Aha, it looks like it was the same family.

A Francis (as transcribed) D R McKinley was born in Mullingar district in 1925. Frances Daisy McKinley, Violetstown, daughter of a Henry Hugh McKinley, motor driver, sadly died in 1931.

Violetstown was the usual address listed on the death in hospital, of the Henry McKinley in 1939.

Age seems to match. Was at violetstown just outside mullingar today. Just could find RC graveyard. Will have to find local graveyard there and have a look to see if I can find where they are buried. It would be great to find grave

Henry and Rebecca's 1919 born daughter married a soldier in County Meath in 1941. Witnesses look to have been her mother and her 1922 born brother. I haven't mentioned her or her brother's names, as born post 1918.

Seems to be RC parish. The family in question seem to have been CofI.
