Madala Nicholas, who was a retired sea captain who worked on cruise ships in Australia, would have been 81 at that stage, while gogo Hilary, who also worked on cruise ships, would have been 78.
Cops were alerted to the home after a neighbour, who thought the couple had sold the house and moved, noticed their car parked around the back.
When cops went to the house to carry out a welfare check, they discovered madala Nicholas’ body in a bedroom and gogo Hilary’s in the sitting room.
It was clear that both had been dead for several months.
Erin Research founder, Padraic Grennan, confirmed on Monday, 11 July that his investigators had found that Madala Nicholas had a 61-year-old son from a previous relationship and that he had a brother living in London.
Madala Nicholas’ brother told his team that he had not been in contact with his brother for more than 25 years, as he had been working at sea.
