Summary
Nora “Hannah” Duffy died in Galway on December 1, 2016. A Beaver Island community post preserved her Irish death notice and memories of visits to the island with her husband, John, during the 1970s.
Evidence limits
The death and funeral details are reproduced from an external Irish notice; the Beaver Island connection is community memory rather than a formal island record.
Sources
- The post reproduced an Irish death notice identifying Nora (Hannah) Duffy (née Collins), her December 1 death, and funeral arrangements in Galway, then added a Beaver Island memory of Nora and John visiting the island while John practiced medicine in Chicago. The linked Irish notice is preserved in the post text but not independently verified beyond that relay.forum · www.beaverislandforum.com · 11 · t011113
