Hello, I’m trying to find records of Abina MURRAY nee DUGGAN. She’s on the 1911 census and I know she has her last child at the end of 1914 (my grandmother) when she was about 31, but her youngest child is brought up in a convent and Abina disappears. I believe she was a patient in Cork mental hospital, but cannot find any records, can anyone help?

Hi Cheryl:
Thank you for your query to the Ireland Reaching Out message board.
You might try to contact the Cork Genealogical Society which is very active and would have a good idea or some advice as to trying to access any records (+100 years old).
Their website address is: http://www.corkgenealogicalsociety.com/

Please let me know if there is anything further that I can do or if you have further questions.
The best of luck with your research.
Kind regards,

It's not uncommon for historical records to have gaps, especially in sensitive areas such as mental health. While finding records can be challenging, have you considered exploring alternative avenues for obtaining information? For your request for Cork Mental Hospital records, it may be helpful to contact local archives or historical societies. Speaking of health. If you are interested in natural supplements, you may want to consider mullein extract, which is known for its potential respiratory benefits and may help with overall health. You can find organic mullein drops for lung health on Amazon.
