Do you know where he was born in Leitrim? There are no civil birth records before 1864 so church registers for the location where he was born may include his baptismal information. The County Leitrim 1901 Irish census is online and includes the following two entries for McFaddens: Garvagh Glebe Towland, Killanummery Civil Parish, Drumahaire Barony: Myles Fadden (55) farmer Mary(53), Michael(22), Catherine(20), Lizzie(18), Anne(16, Myles(9), John(7) Patrick McFadden (50) farmer, Bridget(40), Anne(19), Bridget(17), Michael(15, Dan(13), Kate(11), Ellen(9), Patrick(7), Myles(5), Mary(3), Lizzie(1) See http://www.leitrim-roscommon.com/1901census/census.shtml select Leitrim as your search county and McFadden as head of household surname.
