not sure what timeframe you are interested in - but it may be worth checking the 1911 census on the National Archives website : http://census.nationalarchives.ie/

a Mary Ellen and Patrick J Gogley are listed on School St, Wexford - see : http://www.rootschat.com/links/070z/

In July of 1867 Patrick Cogley was elected Pilot by Wexford Harbour Commissioners at £100 per year .He was 41 years years of age and carried a certificate of service No. 70579. His age was verified by his father Moses Cogley. Thought this might interest you .

Thanks for all information regarding Patrick Cogley.

Patrick & Ellen at school street wexford were brother and sister, and I have confirmed the address from a cousin I have located in Chicargo USA who used to live with there.

Its great that you have also come up with his father's name Moses..........many thanks to all who have helped. Sue

Re Patrick Cogley as  a Bar Pilot. I don't think that the families of the Bar pilots lived out there with them. The pilots lived in a communal pilot station with all of them sleeping in a room containing bunk beds. The cooking etc. was looked after by a Boy . I am not sure of the Dublin connection although I do know of the maternal side of Mitchell Cogley's family. But I think I should tell you that by email. By the way , some time ago, did I send you a photo of all the pilots on the Fort in 1914 ? .The ol' memory is starting to fade.
