Thank you, dathai, that is very helpful.  I hadn't seen that listing before.

This 1862 Dublin directory lists a Miss Pettigrew living at 138 Dorset St., Upper.  That shows there were likely still Pettigrue relatives living at this address when the baby James Thomas Pettigrue was born there in 1864.

I noticed there were a few Ballantines also living on the same street.

I found an announcement in this newspaper:

Freeman's Journal and Daily Commercial Advertiser (Dublin, Ireland), Thursday, July 15, 1830

"Old Established Stone and Marble Yard,
138, Dorset-Street, Dublin"

In this announcement, James Pettigrue stated he was assuming ownership of this business at 138 Dorset-street, Upper, previously owned by his late father-in-law, Robert McCartney.

Two of James' sons had daughters named Euphemia McCartney, so the name of Euphemia for the elder James' wife is a strong possibility.  In fact, there is a gravesite with a James and Euphemia Pettigrue.  I learned of this thanks to another rootschat poster.
