I think that Margaret Gleeson death in 1931 I posted earlier was Patrick's first wife
There is a marriage in 1923 to Maggie Dunne which looks likely for Patrick

Did you notice that the John GLEESON/Maria KEARNS marriage on Jan 22 1923 is on the same page with witnesses Pat GLEESON & Maggie DUNNE?

Ooh that’s interesting. We’re still trying to work out exactly how Patrick and Maria are related, we think siblings but perhaps with different mothers. But this definitely confirms some link between them, so thank you!
