Lawlor family in Wexford

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Hello All,
I am looking for anyone who may have some information on any Lawlor's residing in County Wexford Ireland.

My grandmother Eileen Lawlor was born in Wexford but moved to England. Her sister Mary Eliza Lawlor resided in Wexford until she died (I have no date). I believe she may of married an Arthur Barlow in 1916 so she would have died Mary Eliza Barlow. My fathers body was returned to Wexford to be buried with her when he passed in 2000. Unfortunately we were estranged for many years before his death and although I believe my aunts last place of residence may have been Wolfe Tone Villas Wexford I cannot find where they are buried. I have contacted the 2 nearest churches and are awaiting their reply. If anyone can shed any light I would very much appreciate it.

Many Thanks in advance.

I think Mary Eliza and her husband Arthur may have had a sweet shop but this is only a vague recollection that I remember hearing as a child.
