Liverpool Catholic Burial brother    Francis O'Rourke - 1883 - 1950  (aged 67 years)

There is a published tree where Hugh O’Rourke and Mary Margaret Seagrave are the parents.
Hugh was born 1898 but his parents are ‘unknown’.

Hugh and Mary married 1923 in West Derby and his 1939 occupation looks quite favourable.
He died in 1957 and is buried in Yew Tree Cemetery.

This could be brother Hugh.

Sandra,
It might be worth contacting the tree owner. I think I read they had been online within the last months.

I have contacted some already Heywood.  Will see if they reply before going any further.
Sometimes the messages remain undelivered.  :-\

Thank You

I hope there is a result.

I found CWGC very helpful when I was contacted via Rootschat about a great uncle. I had already posted a query about his death so was found quite easily.
There was little known of him in the current wider family, if anything,  so I became the contact.
It was a fulfilling experience.
