Hi Folks,

 Fr: Patrick age 69 a widower, his daughter Catherine age 9yrs
My G.G Father Patrick James age 8, I have quite a bit on my G.G father he died 23rd April 1916 in W.W.1,

Hi,
No there is no address there are of no fixed abode, don't know the mothers name either I never found birth or marriage details for the G.G.G.father Patrick, I know he was dead in 1908 when my G.G father Patrick James married in Derry,
I know G.G father Patrick James was born in Glenties Donegal, how ever i tried to get a birth cert no record?
He had came before the courts in Donegal, His will from W.W.1 leaves his possessions to my Gran, Bridget Leonard/Lennon( nick name was Lennon) thanks
