James William James DONNELLY WW1
« on: Friday 02 August 24 22:10 BST (UK) »
James William James Donnelly died on 12 Feb 1921 after serving with the Royal Army Medical Corps.He lived with his wife Mary Minnie Donnelly at Campsie Ave , Omagh but died in the Sanatorium at Rossclare, , Irvinestown.
His death registration gave his occupation as "school teacher". Was he teaching in the Omagh area?
I have not found any trace of him in the 1911 Census nor any record of his marriage. One of his record cards does refer to an alternative address at Dunmore, Lissan PO, Cookstown.
I am keen to find where James is buried. Any help would be most welcome.

Recent information makes it fairly certain that he is buried at Clogherny Presbyterian Church,
