Patrick's wife was Bridget Lenihan both born in late 1700's Patrick was born in Geegah Sligo and Bridget in Roscommon They lived in Augrim/kilmore area and had abt. 10 children Michael was the oldest and I believe his descendants live on the original farm. My gr-gr grandfather was next Martin.He lived in Roscommon until 1870's and moved to Glasgow then to Rhode Island, USA. One of Michael's daughters Katherine also moved here and the two families remained close.
