    Have you tried:

    Irish Genealogy

    https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/

    By the Government of Ireland

    Many 'Images' of Records are FREE to access/view

    Question:

    what have been some of your main sources so far in researching our family?

    Are there any extended family who you may be able to contact that would have additional resources?

    Have you ever done a GOOGLE search on the name?

    ok

    is that because you dont know who they are?

    or simply because "extended family" just doesnt exist?

     

    I do note what appear to be living persons with that same name - which make me wonder if they are related.

    one thing to be sure - is you should always try different name spelling variations

    I can imagine the name being recorded under various spellings

    also any indication Eamon was not his full complete, or legal name?

    Thanks for your help Dennis

    I have googled him and found the death notice which may help. I've also tried different spellings of his name.

    All great suggestions

    Thanks

    I know nothing about Death Certificate regulations in Ireland

    but would you be able to request his Death Certificate - and do you know what type of info would typically be on a death certificate (of Ireland)
