Looking for Patrick & Elizabeth
« on: Wednesday 26 April 17 23:14 BST (UK) »
I have a marriage for Patrick J Hartnett of Springfield MA Hotel Proprietor 10th June 1907 age 44 Father Maurice Hartnett Mother Johanna Killigrew To Elizabeth V Dorgan Nurse Father Michael Dorgan Mother Bridget Sheehan.

Cannot locate Patrick on any census after his marriage. Any leads appreciated thank you

Just so people can see the previous thread on Maurice & family:  http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=770021.0

I looked for Patrick before, but I didn't see anything that was a definite match.

The city directories for Springfield from at least 1901 have a Patrick J. Hartnett, prop (proprietor, I guess?) American House 243 Main, home ditto.  Under Saloons, it also has Patrick J. Hartnett, 245 Main.  In the 1910 Springfield city directory, it says Hartnett, Patrick J. rem West.  I'm not sure if West is West Springfield, the western part of the US, or something else entirely.

I suspect this is Elizabeth in the 1910 census - https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M2JB-JLJ  The middle initial and occupation matches the marriage record.  She's listed as widowed, but I wonder if that was really the case if the city directory said he moved.

1910 census as previously posted appears to be the correct one. She had one child since deceased.

1920 Census: Elizabeth V Hartnett age 39 married, trained Nurse (private family) Roomer, Hamden Mass.

1929 Directory Washington DC,
Elizabeth Hartnette 447 Chap. NW apartment 41, widow of Patrick J Hartnette

1930 Census: Elizabeth V Hartnett widow age 52 Nurse, private family. Washington DC. Rents

1940 Census: Elizabeth Hartnett same address as 1930 census age 60 widow. Rents

Died 7 May 1952 Buried Arlington National Cemetery Washington DC Plot/sec 21 grave 12-11

Re the application for burial she was born 1 April 1878 and was a reserve in the Army Nurse Corp WW1
from August 12 1918-September 14 1919 Nearest contact is Edward T Dorgan, 833 Chestnut Street Springfield Mass. 

So if the 1929 directory is correct Patrick died before 1929
