Somewhat hindered by at least two computers crashing on me and losing data, bringing up 2 children, a serious eye condition (which explains the occasional weird spellings) and life in general! Weirdly Covid-19 is giving me the leisure to asses and organise my information.
Also, it is possible that the John Patrick you found in Nottingham may well be mine! There is something itching my brain about that. JP did desert his family on at least two occasions and from memory on one of these occasions he and his brother were found by in Nottingham after their wives went on the parish. Where did you find teh newspaper article? Do you still have it>?
