Death notice
« on: Saturday 28 March 20 08:22 GMT (UK) »
Trying to find a death notice of Michael Mitchell born 1875 who died on the 23 MAR 1968 in Ballinasloe  Ireland, he was from a large family so surely someone must have put a notice in the newspaper but have not found any mention as yet. If there is anyone who can find him I would be very grateful.

Do you know where he died or where he is buried, could you have the date incorrect?
There is a Michael Mitchell on the 21 March died Ballinasloe in hospital, appears to have been single.
Home address Clooncagh House, Wood?awn probably Woodlawn, buried Cloonkeen.
Regretted by brothers and sisters.

Thanks Sinann, you are a Angel, I must have got the wrong death date he was definitely from Clooncacagh so you have found him. I don't know where he was buried but  with that new info I will be able to trace him. ;D
