    Yes. I have several Rodger/Roger/Rody names in one side of my tree - Ryans, sometimes referred to as the Ryan Rody's.

    Just a single word at the end of the church marriage record here - the transcript has it as "Coppenmore". But I can't find a record of that anyway. Also, would that have been the address of the groom, bride or witnesses?

    Well spotted. I thought in law was in there somewhere but didn't spot the word widow.

    I have a Rody who was Rodolphus. Now there's a name.

    Rody Kickham, who James Joyce described as a "decent fellow" in "A portrait of the artist as a young man", is officially Rodolphus.

    I know this because his mother was a sister of my great grandfather.

    Hi folks, I wonder if anyone could take a stab at Daniel Connor's cause of death please? I have an idea of the first two lines but not the third.

    Edit:
    I can't seem to attach the image; please search on Irish Genealogy, Trim, 1921. Thank you!

    I can only get 'Asphyxia - Strangulation of the ?'. Found by his son. Very sad - sounds horrendous.
