Bridget Connolly Death
« on: Tuesday 01 October 19 16:35 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I am trying to find out what became of Bridget Connolly of Keady, Armagh.

She was born in Clea, Keady as Bridget Rafferty on 30/3/1865, married Michael Connolly in Keady on 3/2/1889, was widowed when Michael died in Blackwatertown on 19/5/1913.

She also shows up in the 1911 census as staying at House 21 in Clay (Clea?), Keady with her family but I can't seem to find any record of her death.

Can anyone help?

Beseeinyou

A likely looking death was on 27.2.1927 aged 52, registered in Armagh, Keady sub-district. Also 13.9.1929 aged 64 (age doesn't fit so well).

Thank you for your replies, the 1927 one looks unlikely as the age is a good 10 years out but the 1923 and 1929 ones are promising.

To my embarrassment I had no idea what Groni was, I was using the Irish Genealogy site, have you any idea why those ones you've found don't show up there?

Many thanks KG for taking the time and posting that link that spells out how the records work, no wonder I couldn't find it there :-)

Groni looks similar to Scotland's People with the credits system, I shall register and buy some credits and have a rumble around, once again much obliged.

I was wondering does England have a similar system to Groni / Scotland's People for looking at certificates with credits?, the GRO website I've seen looks like it is a minimum of £7 just to get at one certificate !
