In Spring of 2016, I visited Ireland. One of my quests was to locate death records of my husband's Irish family. They were easily obtained at the General Register Office (GRO) in Dublin. Now, these records can be found online (free) at the Irish Government website www.irishgenealogy.ie.
For #52ancestors post forty-three, the writing prompt was cause of death and I know some of my husband's family would like to see these death records obtained in Dublin.
The following death records are those of known Quinn and Murray family.
