    Notes:

    Birth:
    Grave stone says 1849

    Immigration:
    The 1900 Census says 1868. 1920 says 1867. 1910 Census says 1870

    Naturalization:
    1900 Census says 1868, 1920 says 1870

    There appears to be a naturalization petition for Patrick Callahan, with witnesses Patrick Gloster and Solomon Wright. Callahan was born in Dingle, County Kerry, Ireland about 1847. Arrived at New York, 1 Jun 1863. Petition for Naturalization in Boston on 4 Nov 1876. Found in Massachusetts, State and Federal Naturalization Records, 1798-1950

    Census:
    In 1880, there are seven families enumerated at dwelling 73 in Weymouth with Patrick and his family. Either this was an apartment house or a real mess. Both Patrick and Bridget report that they and their parents are from Ireland.

    Census:
    In 1910, Patrick and Bridget are enumerated next door to their daughter Nellie and her husband Michael F. Boyle. In 1900, it was noted that Patrick and Bridget were married 30 years. Here, they are married 38 years. He is listed as immigrating in 1870 instead of 1868 and she in 1866. This means that they were likely married in Massachusetts and came separately.

    Census:
    By 1920, Patrick is no longer listed as head of household. He is residing in his son's home. Bridget is gone, presumably dead. He is list as immigrating in 1867 and being naturalized in 1870.

    Patrick married Bridget H. Lyons on 10 Jul 1870 in Weymouth, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States. Bridget (daughter of Patrick Lyons and Mary Scanny) was born in Aug 1848 in Ireland; died on 15 Jan 1913 in Weymouth, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States; was buried on 17 Jan 1913 in Weymouth, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  4. 7.  Bridget H. Lyons was born in Aug 1848 in Ireland (daughter of Patrick Lyons and Mary Scanny); died on 15 Jan 1913 in Weymouth, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States; was buried on 17 Jan 1913 in Weymouth, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States.

    Notes:

    Immigration:
    Have not yet found a record here. Possible matches:
    Bridget Lyons, age 20, F, Spinster, arriving 17 Oct 1867 aboard the Pennsylvania.

    Bridget Lyons, age 20, arriving 10 May 1866 to New York on the Star of the West, origin Ireland.

    Bridget Lyons, age 19, arrival aboard the Aleppo in Boston, 5 Oct 1868 (from Liverpool). Seems most likely.


    Census:
    1900 Census reports that Bridget and Patrick were married in about 1870 (30 years in 1900) and that Bridget had had 6 children, four of whom where still living. Her naturalization status is covered by her husband's.

    Census:
    In 1910, Bridget is listed as 65 years old and Michael is 55. Her age is more close to correct, but his is wrong. She also reports having had 7 children, of whom 4 are living rather than 6 children.

    Bridgette reports that that she immigrated in 1866.

    Died:
    Vol. 104, page 501

    Notes:

    Marriage License:
    Intention to marry.

    Notes:

    It is not clear that John & Mary immigrated to the US. Patrick may have come alone as a young man. While they do not appear to be deceased when he marries (Bridget's parents are listed as dec'd and Patrick's are not), they may not have come with him.
