Gardai (Police) in Dublin are looking for Rellies of a Manchester ? man who died of natural causes in his home on August 9th of this year.
The man aged 57 years died in Slievebloom Road, Drimnagh, Dublin.
He was 5foot 6 inches tall, clean shaven, grey hair balding, no tattoos or scars on his body.
He had been living in Dublin for the past ten years. Believed to be from the Manchester Area.
Documentation found on him indicates that he may be connected with Copperhill, Salford and Stretford, Manchester.
If anyone would like to know the gentlemans name they can P.M. me here and i will tell them.
Or if prefered can ring Crumlin Gardai (Police) Station on
+353 (i) 6666200.
Lily.
Edit, both Irish and U.K. Police have done extensive searches for Rellies without results.

Hi Liz,
It is so very sad, i hope that they do to, but it looks unlikely as Police in both Countries have tried without luck to find any of his relies.
I have had a look myself but most people with his name are from Birmingham or just England.

I find these notices in the paper etc so very sad, that someone can lose contact with all their family so that no one knows when they have died. I watched the programme Missing a few weeks ago and there were so many unsolved mysteries where young and not so young people just disappeared, sometimes for no apparent reason. This poor chap could be the same, left home after a quarrel or maybe just was depressed and fed up, and so he left and people looked for him, without success, and eventually took the view that either he would return home or make contact some time or that something bad had happened. Then they move on maybe and so the chance of meeting again is lost and the person who went is never heard of again but somewhere dies a possible lonely death and has no one to mourn at their funerals. Such is life sometimes, very very sad for all concerned. May he rest in peace and be reunited with loved ones gone before.
