Help needed to find record of 2 deaths

[City Hall]

Hi all. I have been trying for some time to find death records for 2 relatives/ancestors without success.
Their names are Mary Largey and her younger son John Largey.Surname may be recorded as Largy. Mary's maiden name was Magee(may be recorded as McGee).
They both appear on the 1901 census.

Neither appear on the 1911 census.
Mary's other child recorded on the 1901 census, Edward,is living with his maternal grandmother in the 1911 census.
Mary's mother Annie states that she has only 3 children still living and these are obviously the 3 grown up children still living with her

Mary's husband, James Largey, is recorded on the 1911 census as a widower(of Mary) and father of 2 children, 1 still living(Edward) and 1 has died(John)

I have been trying to find death records for Mary and John for some considerable time. I even travelled to Dublin and trawled through 10 years of BMD registers(1901-1911) without success.

Can anyone help?

Incidentally, for those interested in WW1 history, Edward Largey, my Grandfather,from inauspicious beginings, went on to serve his country with distinction, winning the DSM for valour and being mentioned in dispatches in the London Gazette. He took part in the now legendary raids on Zeebrugger and Ostend in 1918.

Have you checked if they moved to England, Wales or Scotland and whether their deaths might be recorded there?

Hi Margaret, to be honest, I haven't. I thought it unlikely she would split the family. However I will now start searching the BMDs for England and Wales.

Hi Darksecretz, thank you for posting the details. I appreciate it. I saw these 2 entries recorded in the Deaths Index when I was trawling through 10 years of Indexes(or is it Indicies) 1901 - 1911 as mentioned earlier. I disregarded them at the time because the location, Armagh, and the ages did not tie in with the information that I have. My gut feeling is that they are not the people I am looking for ( my great grandmother and great uncle) but I will not know for certain unless I order death certs for them. I will do this when I am next in Dublin.

Thanks again.

Paul.

[Darksecretz]

I know what you are saying Paul, I have no idea of whether Armagh is next to (or near) the place where you expect them to be.. did you check the UK BMDs at all as Margaret suggested?

do you know where in England Mary was born at all?

[City Hall]

Hi Darksecretz, I did check the UK BMDs. Again, I found deaths for both names in the North-East of England, but again the ages at time of death and years of death did not correspond.
Mary Largey, born Mary Magee(possible recorded as McGee) was born in Liverpool to James Magee and Annie Magee(nee McCausland) between 1869 and 1873. I have seen both years used.
