1881. Thomas Coffey , 62, married, labourer, dies 26/2/1881 in Newtown. Informant was Bridget Coffey, presumably his wife
1894. A Bridget Coffey, 69, dies 18/12/1894 at Poleberry. Informant Ellen Malone, daughter . But an Ellen Coffey of Ballytuckle married Daniel Malone in 1876 and her father was a John Coffey - so this NOT our Bridget!! No other death available and no re-marriage either
