Hi Estelle, I am curious about this as well.  I believe that there was such a paper out of Boston.  I do know that I have seen deaths of Irish men and women living in America posted in the Nenagh Guardian (reading from Mary's posts).  My own great geat grandfather, Samuel Rawlins, died on 12/20/1884 in Philadelphia, Pa. USA but we have never found an obit in larger area papers.  Samuel was only about 40. I do know that some obits were also sent to the US.  An obit for Ellen Colgan Rawlins, who died near Dublin in the late 1880s appeared in New York papers.  It would be wonderful to find out more.

I found a transcription of interest on the following page - and was wondering if he death would have occurred in America, or in Ireland. Perhaps it was to nform family and friends in America. Would the paper have been published in merica or Ireland? The death transcriptions seem to be for all over Ireland, but I also noticed ther places eg San Francisco. <http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nyirish/IRISH%20DEATHS%201887.html> Thank you for any comments, Estelle (in Australia) _________________________________________________________________ et th e latest news, goss and sport Make ninemsn your homepage! ttp://windowslive.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=813730 ______________________________________________________ riffith's Valuation: http://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths.php ------------------------------ o unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] ith the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of he message
