Nivard, I found a death date for a former Englishman who had emigrated to America in the early 1900's. He left a small bequest to a sister still in England. I hadn't found his death date in U.S. records up until this came up. I was quite surprised to find it. Thanks for mentioning looking for Ireland in the Wills for England. Definitely worth checking out.
