His fourth Child was a Richard, born between 1864 and 1870. My grandfather was his younger brother. Thats all the info I have on Richard, not even his middle name. My father's middle name was Francis, and is supposed to be a family name, he was named Francis after St. Francis, as he had to bear a saints name to be baptised. Patrick's wife was Mary Ellen Hannaway. She was born in Ireland. She died in East Greemwich Nov 3, 1896. Patrick died Dec 20, 1897 in East Greenwich. We have a naturalization paper on Patrick, dated Mar 1872. Patrick was born Mar 27, 1829. Children were Edward. Winifred, Charles, Richard,and Joseph. We are in contact with decendants of Edward in Rhode Island.
