Thank you for looking for the death of Patrick - I still am rather baffled at how soldiers moved from REgiment to Regiment.  It seems there are two deaths in the 64th Foot Reg but on a paying site.

Hmmm, also, I've lost Denis Crowley after 1881 - can you try and spot him please?

Thank you again - the missing piece that has helped so much!

Thank you for the 1881 - when John, my ancestor married in 1882 he was married from PORT CLARENCE.  Ah you have brought it all together.  And I didn't know his sister, Ellen, was such a big name in the town.  Her funeral was quite impressive and also at the Golden Age of the funeral too.

The marriage entry I posted shows Catherine being the WIDOW of Patrick O'Brien.  So he died before 1858 but I'll be honest, I can't work out the occupations etc.

Thank you,

Peter

The two men Patrick O Brien and Dennis Crowley imagine, were both in India at the same time.
Perhaps in the   same regiment 64th [North Staffordshires]
Comes back to investigating both the Patrick O Brien Indian Mutiny deaths already found in 1857.

Most interesting post.

Than you Brionne - do you have access to the marriage between Catherine Burke and Dennis Crowley?

It states the occupations there but I can't quite work it out.

Yes I must look into the deaths of Patrick O'Brien.
