Thanks for the info. I have been very fortunate with the LDS records...many 'bingos'. Just trying to fill some gaps...especially re Gr.Grandmother, Mary Keane. Thought a death cert. would give a clue to her birthplace via parents names. Marriage records for c1840s unfound. If I knew her parish.......she may have come from Roscommon which is right across the River Suck. But thank you for your time and response. I'll be in Dublin next week and then on to Galway City. Any more luck I have will be like a shower of blessings from above.
