Hi I looking for any information about Julia Crawford, probably she was born in Monaghanin 1896. I found information with Census form 1911, she was a resident of house 74in Culmore, Londonderry at this time she was 15. I`m will be very hapy if I have any more information about her. we make project in school about civilian who die in Easter Rising 1916. Regards Magda
Hi Magda
Paddy has included the link to the 1911 Census above where Julia Crawford is listed. However I cannot see a baptism record in Co. Monaghan for her. There are some Crawford families listed in Co. Monaghan baptisms - do you know if she had any brothers and sisters so we can try to find the right family?
She is listed at the link below but I can't find out much more about her. It seems Julia is buried in Glasnevin, Dublin:

Let me know what other info you have and I'll do my best to help you with your project.

Found this aswell, Not sure if it's of any help ?
The following list is of identified persons interred at Glasnevin Cemetery and whose deaths occurred as a result of bullet or gunshot wounds arising out of the Rebellion.
The list includes several persons who were trampled to death by crowds in the Streets. Two Hundred and Fifty bodies buried in this Cemetery between Easter Monday the 24th of April and 11th July. The names are of those persons whose deaths were directly attributable to the Rising.
Crawford, Julia (20), 7 Irvine Crescent.*
Hi
Thank you for all information , but I know this already :). I saw on this 1911 Census list from Londonderry another girl Maria Crawford age 16, but she was born at Donegal. I don`t know is Julia sister or not. I also checked census list in this time who lived at Dublin 7 Irvine Crescent but there was also no any Crawfords. Another information is that House 74 in Culmore Londonderry the house was connected with the school, a boarding school for girls, And then I stuck. Maybe at Easter Rising she just visiting somebody at & Irvine Crescent maybe was just coincident.
This Project1916 is like memory for all 262 civilians who was killed in Easter Rising, and we artists(262 artists)we will by make 262 different houses represent each person. I pick My Julia, and I will make ceramic house- sculpture about her symbolize her. This is the reason why I want more information about her , I need to know her history ar 1916, I`m polish originally so is very difficult finding more information wat was going on at this time in Ireland, but is so excited :) So guys any help ....any story will by perfect
Regards Magda
Magda,
Can you say for deffinate that Julia Crawford was born in Monaghan?
Could she have been born in Cavan or some other county bordering Monaghan ?
The original information you received on Julia Crawford, Where did this info come from, Was it through one of your collage lecturer's?
If not where did this info come from & why did you choose her as the person to base your project on ?

I just pick up Her from list in this webside, Regards Magda
hi, hopefully not too late with reply. Julia Crawford was actually married name, she married John (Jack) Crawford in 1915, Her maiden name was Julia Margaret Mary Fagan born 1895 to William Fagan and Marianne O'Brien in 11 Russell St, Dublin who were School Teachers. In 1911 census at age 14 she was listed occupation as photographer. She married John in Dublin and in our family the story goes that she was shot whilst getting rid of crumbs from tablecloth out of their window by blackntans during rising.
Thanks for this Chris!
Best wishes

Julia was my Grandfathers sister. I have been searching for information on the family forever. My grandfather died when my mother was 5 so I do not have a lot of history on the family. I can't believe I came across this message.....

Many thanks for all the information you have submitted. My daughter has been asking me for details of family history and to my shame I have very few answers for her. This has been very helpful as i believe Julia was my mother's aunt . This is my first search and has already proved rewarding so i am looking forward to exploring further.
