It is Friday again, when I share something that I have found whilst looking for records, that is interesting or adds information to our family tree.
Anne Boushell (1875-1951) is Dermot's 2nd great aunt. She was the daughter of Patrick and Mary (Dunne) Boushell (Dermot's 2nd great grandfather and 2nd great grandmother). She was 75 years old when she died, her death registration gives the cause of death as influenza (7 days), cardiac failure.
From: Leinster Leader 20 January 1951, page 9
The transcript reads:
