Glenn,

Can you give some information on the headstone and where it is located. On the right hand side there is the name Ziegler.

A Frey is recorded as "MRS", so it would appear that she was married. Do you have any information on her maiden name?

Regards,

McCoy

Glenn,

Is this who you are looking for? I had been searching all over Ireland until I found this on the internet. Did she die in Australia?

I suspect there are a couple of spelling mistakes on the gravestone. The townland of Dooks is probably Dooaghs, and it’s in the parish of Killorglin, not Killoglin. In 1911 there were 17 households in Dooaghs, and a total population of about 80.

Also the gravestone doesn’t say she died in Dooks. It says she was born there. c1862 judging by her age.

Glenn,

This is the Geni link I mentioned above. Based on what you have shared, this is your Abbie Frey. Her daughter was Margaret who died in 1919. Abbie Burke was born in Killorglin, Kerry, about 1863, parents- Robert Burke and Mary Sullivan. She went to Australia and married John Frey in 1886. She died in Australia in 1927 in Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia and buried at Drayton and Toowoomba Cemetery.

Who was your Grandmother?
