date of death/ certificate
« on: Friday 19 June 20 12:31 BST (UK) »
I'm 82 now...but have always wondered when a young girl on my dads side died and the date.
She was Bridget McEnery of Bishop Street Newcastle West County Limerick. her father Was John McEnery. She's alive in the 1911 census [age 10yo] of Ireland. dad ran off to Dublin to join the army at 16 years of age. He was born in 1899.....So Bridget died between 1911 and 1916?...but i've never traced it.
Can any one help me.

Thank you for any effort.. Tony Mc.

Ah!..Thank you KG & Conahy...I tell you a few tears have fell today, but there in my heart...More power to you.
My brother Con was buried in february...and we often used to wonder what it was like to have a granny.... he was worse than me Conahy, he'd have been howling.... and and it's amazing to think the ould fella went on..
Mary Ita ran away to Liverpool
Dad ran away   and poor ellen became a nun.... I think John lived on in the house,,A fireman in the states wrote my dad to tell him about his sister...
Thank you once again Conahy...
