Just about to post the same thing, Monica

The townland is Moneen in Strabane registration district which is where the family were living in 1911.

Yes that is Hugh, dying in family home
and
I should not have missed that

Thank You

The records refereed to above are correct.
John and William both single died in Scotland and a most significant aspect was that their brother Dan was the informant on the deaths registration.
This must mean that they remained in contact with each other.
But the story of their deaths did not seem to get passed down the generations.
Yet my granduncle knew something.

I am now writing this up and they will not be forgotten.

There is some importance to be attached to something that you wrote yourself being re-visited and looked at anew.


Thanks to all

I would imagine if you viewed the death registration for John in 1918, there would be a reference to an entry in the Register of Corrected entries (normally indicated by writring to the left margin of the death register entry).

The newspaper entry that aghadowey mentioned:

Hamilton Advertiser, 25 Nov.1916: ... 6. JOHN QUINN. Steelwork Labourer, Railway Cottage, Park Street.

This is a reference to an up and coming Fatal Accident Enquiry following his accident.

The RCE document, if linked to his death registration, will make reference to the enquiry and findings. You can see from the page on SP whether there is a RCE link to be viewed.

What did brother William die from in 1903?

Was wondering what that was about

In the case of John only

The menfolk certainly had sad outcomes at relatively young ages didn't they. See that eldest brother James also died young in 1903 (grim death for him wasn't it  ).

Trying to remember where exactly on the page you will see it. Certainly towards the top of the page, there should be ref to additional information about the entry and a button link.
