Hello Jim I had a quick look on the Glasnevin Cemetery Website at - http://www.glasnevintrust.ie/genealogy/ and I found that a JAMES DUDLEY was buried there in 1839 aged 48. I also found the name MARY DUDLEY twice, with a burial in 1834 and one in 1835 but no ages given for these two burials. The JAMES DUDLEY appears to be the only one in that grave. Both the MARY DUDLEYs have others buried with them. As HENRY and JAMES were orphaned when young the above burials might hold something for you. There is a baptism of a HENRY DUDLEY at St.Catherines RC Church Dublin in 1831 With Parents JAMES and MARY DUDLEY (nee COGHLAN). This is available on http://www.irishgenealogy.ie/index.html Will be interested to hear if any of the above turns out to be your family.

Further to Joyce's reply, there is also an Elizabeth Dudley born to James Dudley & Mary Coghlan - perhaps the daughter who married Thomas Maguire? As well as the Henry born 1831, there is also a HENRY DUDLY born to parents James Dudly and Mary N/R in 1824 - perhaps the same parents, which means that the Henry born 1824 died. One of the sponsors of this Henry was Patt Dudly. There are also later Dudley births/baptisms with the name Henry - perhaps the next generation of Dudley's? Happy hunting.
