Reference Number

Title
He held the title of "Captain."
Apparently, Daniel Dowling was in the British Army at the time of the 1798 Irish Rebellion and was sent from England to County Wexford to suppress the uprising. It is then, explained in a letter that he deserted with half of his company to the Irish cause. The letter from which this is drawn appears to confuse Daniel with his son, Thomas, stating his followers escaped to Yerba Buena or Goat Island in San Francisco now in the United States of America.

She always had several people staying with her throughout the year. She took in an aged cousin by the name of Mary Brady who was widowed from a man named Reynolds. She took care of her the last 15 years of her life. She was in her 90's when she died. Fr. Pat stayed with her in the summer of 1928 (circa) that's when the picture was taken.
