A Peter Hynes asks for the possesions of his father Francis Hynes who died 18/3/1870- but his death was actually 1871 , Francis aged 48 : also obituaries say death 19/3/1871 - in the Union hospital- an uncle Richard O'Callaghan mentioned in this - FMP.
Going back a generation: an alternative to his Limerick birth on RI !
