Go to the following URL:
www.irishfunerals.com/index.php and you will have free access to all Irish Death Notices published since 1st January 2003. Similar access to current Death Notices, updated daily, is available at the following URL:
www.loadza.com/display_results_.php?cat_id=750
These are two extremely useful sites which should be in every researchers Favourites folder. The first of these two URLs also provides general information concerning disposal of property, wills, heirs, inheritance and other legal matters, etc., resulting from a death. I hope this is of some help.

Did you include
http:// in front of the two URLs specified? Here they are again, but with
http:// included this time. (1)
http://www.irishfunerals.com/index.php and (2)
http://www.loadza.com/display_results.php?cat_id=750 I have just tried both URLs are they opened correctly for me. Make sure that you transcribe them exactly. I didn't previously include the
http:// bit because that is common to all web pages. Please reply again if it doesn't work for you this time, or maybe someone else would oblige by trying to access the same two URLs and letting us know how they fared out. Best wishes!

Shiv, My apologies; I have just discovered that I erroneously inserted one underscore (_) too many in the loadza address in my original message, but the second address appears to have been correct. I think - and hope- that I have both addresses correctly given in my second message. See how you fare out this time!
