I'm trying to find Mary E Murtagh's birth.
Think I have ruled out mothers Smith and Kavanagh.

I've come to the conclusion the only way forward with this is the Newspapers.
Death notices might give vital clues
This site is very good https://www.irishnewsarchive.com/
But I'd be inclined to wait on till the Evening Hearld is added at the end of March.
You can take out a 24 hour subscription for €10 about £8.

That or try to find children of your Uncle on social media.
