Listers:
I am looking for the marriage and death dates of PHILIP RYAN, born in
Newfoundland 24 APR 1885 and died in Providence, RI ± 1959.
Here is what I know about him:
Philip Ryan was first married to Johanna Doyle in Newfoundland. She
died in St. John's, Newfoundland. They had 2-3 children, one of whom
was named William.
It is unclear if Philip Ryan’s children came to the States with him.
Only William is known to have lived and died in Woonsocket, Rhode
Island in the late 1950s very early 1960s. (I can't find his death
certificate, any suggestions?).
After the death of his first wife, PHILIP RYAN married MARY AGES
O'BRIEN. It was a second marriage for both parties. MARY AGNES
O'BRIEN was previously married to THEODORE LIZOTTE of Woonsocket.
THEODORE DIED IN 1938. (In the will of her uncle, Anthony Conway,
dated June 1943, Mary Agnes O’Brien is called “Mary Ryan” indicating
she married Philip Ryan between these dates: 1938-1943.)
Philip appears in:
Polk's Providence City Directory, 1952. Providence, R.I.: R. L. Polk
and Co., 1952, page 1009 and in 1953 on page 1026.
QUESTIONS:
Can someone find the marriage date and place of PHILIP RYAN to MARY
AGNES LIZOTTE (nee O'BRIEN) in the early 1940s?
Can someone find the death date and place of PHILIP RYAN?
Thanks for any help.
