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

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

    The first word is definitely Grange. Coniworth? Co. something? Co. Meath?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39 pikebishop

    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?

    Is the second word 'widow'?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,105 ✭✭✭pedroeibar1


    M. Kehoe
    Sisterinlaw
    Widow
    Present at death
    16 Bonham Villaas


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 11,683 Mod ✭✭✭✭Hermy


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

    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.

    It's probably meant to be Neil.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 69 ✭✭Mez1982


    Yeah I'm seeing Neil also. Variation of O Neil?

    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.
