    Hi All,


    If on a death cert it says there was an inquest held. Would that info be available and where would I find it. It would be in 1923.
    Thanks.

    Best bet is a newspaper report.

    I have an Irish newspaper subscription if you want to send the details and I could have a look

    Are all inquests reported in the press? :/ Could I get info anywhere on an inquest in Dublin in 2002?

    I was able to find the file on an inquest from the late 1960's at the National Archives.

    Not all inquests are reported - depends on the circumstances.

    For example, someone ill who dies of something else (like a fall) would need an inquest.
