Thank you.

My research shows that Patrick and Bridget had 4 children.
Mary Kate - born 1897, moved to USA, married Joseph Hickey in Cook, Illinois, Died 1975.

Patrick - born 1898 (My grandfather) - married in Derby, England - moved to Birmingham in 1950’s - deceased date unknown.

Michael - born 1900, died 4 days after birth

Thomas - born 1902, on 1911 census but no other information known.

Anyone know where burials would have taken place for residents of Renbrack.
Trying to find graves for my great grandparents Pat Durkan (1867-1925) and Bridget Carty (1855-1929)
Thanks

Adding to this John Orp question.
Mary Clark (1821-1865) was my 3rd Great Grandmother.
I recently discovered her grave in Quarndon, epitaph is shown as Mary Orp buried with husband John (1810-1886).
I heard from another family member that Mary had a illegitimate son, John Clarke 1847-1900 - my 2nd Great Grandfather. If you look at John’s marriage banns Mar 1867 to Hannah Ward, his father is shown as Thomas Clarke not John Orp. Note John’s occupation Tailor.
In 1861 census, John has taken his step-fathers name and is living in Cheetham with his Aunt Hannah Clark(1828-1883) and her husband John Priestman (Tailor). John Clarke-Orp is shown as a Tailor’s apprentice.
Hope that helps
