Individual Details
Joseph (Joe) DONNELLY
(Abt 1893 - 15 Mar 1953)
A birth record has been located for a Joseph Donnelly who was born at 34 Commons Road Cork on 19 March 1893 to John Donnelly and Mary [what looks like] Connor. I think it very likely that this is our Joe's birth record as the date ties in with our Joe's age at death (59). Also, Nora, our Joe's wife, grew up at 65 Common Road.
The marriage record of Joe and Nora tells us that Joe, a widower, was a shopkeeper and living at 16 Langford Row in Cork at the time (1945). By the time of his death eight years later he had become an engine driver. Joe died of a coronary thrombosis aged about 60.
