The tombstone I posted is in Notre Dame Cemetery in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.  It reads:

Patrick O'Meara, died Dec. 19, 1893, aged 77 yrs. (b. 1816), Native of Co. Tipperary Ireland

Also his wife, Catherine Gleeson, died in Ireland April 4, 1888, aged 57 yrs. (b. 1821), Native of Co. Limerick Ireland

Also, their son John died Jul 8, 1930, aged 69 yrs. (b.1861).

 

I thought it worth posting if other Gleeson or O'Meara's are researching these names.
