What happened to James Patrick Ryan, born in Frogmore, NSW in 1881?
I’m looking for information about James Patrick Ryan, born on 1 August 1881 in the town of Frogmore/Frogmoor in the District of Boorowa/Burrowa, NSW, Australia. Parents: Patrick Ryan and Mary Payne.
I don’t know where or when he died and very little about his life. I have a lot of information on his parents and 8 siblings. They were all born and died in NSW.
So far this is all I have of his life:
I think he died sometime after his sister Elizabeth's death in August 1954 because he was mentioned in her Newspaper Death Notice.
He was not mentioned in his sister Evelyn’s Death Notice in 1963. This may or may not mean he was dead by then. The only remaining sibling, their sister Annie, was mentioned in the notice.
In December 1944, he was mentioned in his brother John Cecil’s Death Notice (as John’s brother Jim).
In 1930, he was mentioned in his mother Mary’s Obituary in 1930, (as her son Jim, living in Sydney).
In 1924, he was mentioned as Best Man at his brother’s wedding in Sydney, NSW.
Some online family trees have him as the husband of Alice King or Margelina Drain or Esther Boneham. Maybe I’m missing something but I can’t see how the records show that he belongs to any of these families.
For me, there are too many James Patrick Ryans on the Electoral Rolls, Ryerson Index and online BDM Indexes to check up on, without knowing more details about his life. Any help at all would be much appreciated. Thanks.
