Leitrim / McPadden from Leitrim
« on: Monday 14 September 09 20:20 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I have hit a brick wall and hope someone may be able to help. My grandfather, Patrick Francis McPadden was born in Drumkeerin (7/28/1904). His parents were Patrick McPadden (b. 1869) and Mary Higgins (b. 1873). As stated on their marriage certificate, from 1899, their fathers were listed as Patrick McPadden and Francis Higgins. I believe Francis Higgins was married to Bridget Gaffney but can not find any other information on Patrick McPadden (my gggfather) or who his wife was. I checked the LDS website and the only other McPadden that I could find in the area who had a son named Patrick born around around 1869 was a Francis McPadden and Mary McNella. Could the marriage certificate found on the Leitrim Geneology website have the wrong name for Patrick's father?
Sorry, so many Patricks I am sure it gets confusing.
