Notes: 

Mary got sick suddenly in 1963 ?

Ardcath Register of Interments records Mary as a labourer's wife.

John lived across from the footbal field for many years after Marys death and was fond of leaning on the box hedge to look at the football games. He went to England in his senior years.

There may be 3 other Fays intered here before Mary passed. To check with Frances Lee Gargan.
