Death register
« on: Saturday 04 April 20 13:26 BST (UK) »
My 2nd great grandfather died 1920 in Londonderry.. On the Catholic death and burial registers  it gives the date....his Name...., Ex.The Barracks. Then his age 86 when he was buried and where..

My question and excuse what may seem a daft one but.. where were the Barracks? would he have lived there? I don't think he was a soldier!

Have you looked to see what the address is on
https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/  deaths go up to 1969.

May be he was an ex soldier who worked at the Barracks, say as a nightwatchman?

Can't find him on there. !920 seems not to come up. I found it on Ancestry select Catholic Death and Burial registers.. which only gives the registry entry and I'm not totally sure it's the right man yet.

Thank you.. I Know his name ( James O'Neill)and have him on 1901 and 1911 census, I have a death registration for him (who I thought might be him) in July 1920.. and His wife (Esther O'Neill) in july 1921 (in the Magherafelt workhouse which states she was married not widowed) So I have since found a death in Sept 1921 which maybe  him , although the age is out !::)  Still hunting till I can confirm it ha!

Thank you all for your help.

https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/  deaths go up to 1969.

Irish records on Irish Genealogy only go up to 1921 for Northern Ireland counties (including Londonderry). For after 1921 see GRONI- https://geni.nidirect.gov.uk/

My 2nd great grandfather died 1920 in Londonderry.. On the Catholic death and burial registers  it gives the date....his Name...., Ex.The Barracks. Then his age 86 when he was buried and where..
My question and excuse what may seem a daft one but.. where were the Barracks? would he have lived there? I don't think he was a soldier!
If you give us the details you have found then we might be able to find more information such as death certificate, newspaper notice, etc.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

I can't find either death in civil index- please post links to both or give more details so we can find them.

Closest I came to this one "death in Sept 1921" in Magherafelt district NOT Londonderry is this one died 22 Sept.1921 but he's married-
