Patricks sister Mary was married to Robert Carr.We do know that Mary's birthday was 7 June 1816 or 1817 .They may have come by way on a ship the Ballyshannon Co. Donegal Ireland to Quebec in 1852. Mary's husband Robert Carr was born24 May 1813 or 1814. Have no information on any of the family members when they live in Ireland. Any information would be helpful.
