McArdle of the West Roxbury Station, and engaged in the real estate business for 50 years, died last night after a short illness. He had lived in the South End all his life. In addition to Capt.

\nThomas McArdle<\/a> and Elizabeth “Bessie” Etkins<\/a>.
\nPatrick’s parent’s information was obtained from the marriage record. It only list his mother as “Bessie”. Later, Patrick had some nieces and nephews living with him. Tracing that name, I was able to locate records for two of Patrick’s sisters, Bridget and Catherine. Both of them list Elizabeth and\/or Bessie Etkins on various records. I have not yet been able to get to Boston to get a copy of Patrick’s death certificate.<\/p>\n
\nPatrick married Sarah Ellen Kelly<\/a>, born Jan 1869 in Hartlepool, Durham, England, on 8 Nov 1886 in Boston, Massachusetts. Sarah died 15 Dec 1916 in Boston, Massachusetts.<\/p>\n
\nPatrick’s arrival in the US was either 1879 (source 1910 Federal Census), 1882 (source Patrick’s Petition for Naturalization) or 1885 (source 1920 Federal Census).<\/p>\n
\nFor most of Patrick’s life, he listed his occupation as a “Peddler”. Other documents show him as a produce peddler. He and Sarah also purchased real estate, the first being the home they shared from 1900 until Patrick’s death in 1942 at 45 Middlesex Street, Boston. Other documents I have found show other properties purchased by either Patrick and\/or Sarah.<\/p>\n
\nPatrick and Sarah had a total of 10 children.<\/p>\n
