All of my sources that I can quote here are through Ancesty.com and I'm not sure how to cite them for purposes of validation for this site.

He was educated in Cootehill, and was apprenticed to a baker.  He immigrated to New Orleans circa 1853, and lived the remainder of his life there.  I am still trying to pinpoint where in County Cavan his origins are.

He died trying to escape the fire that desroyed the St. Charles Hotel in New Orleans in 1894.
