Thank you for the information. I wonder if the Museum of Country Life has any undertaker’s account books ? In Waterford the cost could range from 14 shillings to 2 pounds - http://historicgraves.com/blog/miscellanea/how-much-did-funeral-cost-1880s-thompsons-waterford
May be of interest to some - on 8 July 2015, the National Library of Ireland intends to publish its entire collection of Roman Catholic Parish Registers (up to the year 1880) on a new dedicated website. The name of this website has yet to be announced. The website will hold 390,000 images and will be arranged by parish. See - http://www.irish-genealogy-toolkit.com/Roman-Catholic-baptism.html
