Looking for any info on Paddy Rourke b 1866 who came to Massachusetts USA with his brother John b 1869.they were born in the village of Lisdargan about five miles from Dingle, CoKerry. Parents were Catherine Hanifin and Thomas Rourke. John Rourke settled in Massachusetts married and raised a family. Paddy went west to Montana (dont know the year) to work in the mines. He did marry but had no children. That is all we know about him. I dont think he stayed in Montana, he may of moved on going west following the work. Any info would be appreciated.

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
Any possibility that Patrick was actually born in 1869? See this civil birth record (third record on the page)

John was born in 1866 https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_retur…
Parents were married in January 1866. We currently do not have images of marriage records for 1864-1869. Did find a transcript on the free site www.irishgenealogy.ie which shows parents names (father and mother)
