Listed in
[Thom's, 1847]
at 25 Merchant's Quay, Dublin.
He
mar 2 Feb 1859
to Margaret Colclough [born 1834, Dublin].
She is
possible
descendant of Edward III
if (but seems unlikely) she descends from Colclough of Tintern Abbey.
Patrick and Margaret were
living 5 Adelaide St,
Kingstown (Dun Laoghaire), Co.Dublin,
at son's birth 1865.
Patrick died Dublin, 19 Aug 1878, age 62 [burial record],[grave],[death cert].
See death cert
from here.
Funeral 21 Aug 1878,
bur Glasnevin Cemetery.
"Thomas Colclough" appears as informant in
burial record.
Margaret is listed
in 1901 census
as living Windsor Rd, Rathmines.
She died Windsor Rd, Dec 1902, age 68 yrs.
Death cert and grave say died 21 Dec, but this must be inaccurate since funeral report on Thur 25 Dec says buried last
"Wednesday week".
If buried Wed 24 Dec it would say "yesterday".
So funeral must be Wed 17 Dec.
(todo) See burial record to solve this.
See death cert
from here.
Funeral must be Wed 17 Dec 1902,
bur Glasnevin Cemetery.
See funeral report
in Freemans Journal,
