Elizabeth O'Rourke

Gender | female |
Age at Death | 83 years, 10 months, 29 days |
Narrative
Elizabeth is mentioned in her brother James' death notice in 1959, "of County Down, Ire land." Elizabeth was visited by her niece from Cleveland, Theresa "Tiny" O'Rourke, daughter of William, in the late 1950's or early 1960's.
I have a note from a family member from Cleveland that says
1) Elizabeth lived in the home in which she was born all her life.
2) she died about 1964.
3) she never married.

Birth | March 1878 | Ballintur Townland, Killowen, Kilbroney Civil Parish, County Down, Ireland | 1a | |
Event Note
Superintendent Registrar's District: Kilkeel She was baptized March 6. I'm thinking John went into the registration office and said something like 'oh, she was born last Thursday', but meant Wednesday, and actually a week ago last Wednesday. The baptism record is between a child baptized on the 5th and one on the 7th. Or he was late registering the birth so, to avoid the fine, he said the 14th. |
