Searching for any Wallace that may be related to my paternal grandfather. Oral history says he was from Aran Islands, not sure if that is the case, but it is all I have. His father's name also Patrick and mother's name Mary Flaherty. I know almost nothing about him. He did immigrate to Boston, MA. where he married Mary Curran March 13, 1913. If information on his marraige cert. is correct, he would have been born about 1886/1887. He died in 1917 in Boston from the flu, leaving three children, one being my father, John Wallace. I do not even know if he had siblings as my father was very young when his father passed. Thanks for any help.

See eighth record for 1886 birth of Patrick. He lived in Bungowla on the Arran Islands

Roger,
Thanks sooo very much for birth info on Patrick. I believe this to be my Patrick as information fits to the little I have on him. Not sure about the census tho.
Blessings
