My Uncle Pat was born on the 30th. of August 1913 in Ballyman ( district of Bray ). He married Elizabeth Murphy in 1941 and they had 9 children, Phyllis, John, Christy, Pat, Noel, Vincent Rita, Kathleen, and Willie.
( Unfortunately Willie died at a very early age ).
They lived in South Dock Street which is the next street over from Penrose St. ( where my Grannie Canavan lived ).
He died on the 24th. December 1986 aged 73 years.
Lizzie died on 12th. January 1996 aged 78
" I always remember Pat and Lizzie as a couple who idolized each other and their children."
