Death:
Catherine Donoghue died at Derreennacno on 17 January 1907.  From her death record she was a widow, aged 90 years, a farmer's widow.  (Note: her age of 90 years in 1907 is clearly incorrect but serves as an example of the large number of variations we find in a person's age at a time when many were unable to read or write.  Similar examples are found in ages of people between the 1901 and 1911 Census returns.)
