Donal (Don) Corcoran
« on: Tuesday 18 February 20 11:50 GMT (UK) »
Donal Corcoran born Co Cork Ireland c. 1923 Parents Patrick Corcoran & Margaret Crowley.
All I know is that he died in Toronto Canada 2008.
I did find a Voters register in 1974 in Lloyd Manor Road No 66 Etobicoke Toronto with the names Don Corcoran, Catherine a nurse (presume wife) Margaret Corcoran Student. Any help appreciated . Thank  you. Also I believe Donal (Don) was a Carpenter as was his father Patrick
