Roger,
Thank you for the above references. Yes, I have seen the other 2 "Elizabeth b.1865/Eliza Elizabeth b.1867" baptised/died to parents William RYAN & Honora COFFEY. Seems they finally had a daughter they named the same who finally lived, who is my husband's Great-Grandmother [the Eliza b.1869].
I thought it would be interesting to post Obituaries of people born in the Old Pallas area that died in the US where it mentions the location.
Regards,
Kim
