Title: Patrick O'Callaghan
Post by: mikeblake101 on Monday 22 October 18 17:45 BST (UK)
Obviously, this is a very popular name.

I have found Patrick O'Callaghan from Kanturk (where my ancestors came from) listed as dying on 5th Mar 1894 in Cork District Lunatic Asylum in the Civil Records - married, age 36.

I have also found the probate for Patrick O'Callaghan who died 5th March 1895 in Cork, address given as Blarney Street, Cork.  Beneficiary is his sister Ellen.  His occupation is listed as a cutter - my ancestor came from a family of stone cutters.

The date is the same, but a year apart.  Is this just coincidence or could it be the same person with an explanation why one of the years is incorrect?

Many thanks

Mike

Is the date given for the will not the date of probate - not the date of death?

If you look at 2 records above Patrick....you can see where that person died!

Patrick's says he died Blarney Street!

Is there a Death for a Patrick of Blarney Street  1 year later?

Cork cutter is a good spot.  I think that confirms they are different people.  The fact that one of them is married and the other left everything to his sister also suggests this.

Many thanks for your help.

My great grandmother was Margaret Lizzie O'Callaghan - parents Patrick O'Callaghan and Catherine O'Callaghan, so yes, the second of those marriages is my great great grandparents.
