Hi Des,
Thanks for typing up the info. on the Patton family.
I've been researching the Patton & Clarke family history for a friend. Laura Evelyn Patton married George Griffin Clarke in 1946. George Clarke was born in Baltinglass, Co. Wicklow abt 1909, so it makes sense that Laura is buried in that county with him. I'm guessing her mother Sarah moved there after the death of husband John in 1941 as the 3 of them are buried together.
I've heard stories of George Clarke and Laura Patton's brother having a lot to do with golfing and the Rathfarnham Golf club? Any knowledge of this or other Patton info you'd share with me?
Anyway, I wanted to say thank you as it validates my research and provides me new burial information for some of the Patton's.
Best wishes,
Julia
