McGowan
Having a little difficulty finding one Patrick Mc Gowan. Patrick declared born 10 Feb 1854 when he became a US citizen however the family has always thought him to be the son of Patrick and Mary Carbine born 4 Feb 1849 Carrowmor Moy, Balleyhowley........... Cannot verify.
Patrick is found living Clitheroe England in 1871 in home of Michael Quinn and his spouse Margaret Doyle. Patrick married Margaret's sister Mary in Sts Michael and John, Clitheroe where their first son William was born and baptized, 1883. The Doyle women were the daughters of Patrick (son of Patrick) and Catherine Connelly (William Connelly and Margaret Connors). These families all left Clitheroe for Fall River, Massachusetts.
This Patrick McGowan also said to have middle initial 'L'. Also, he was witness at the trial of Lizzie Borden.
All help appreciated.
