Searching my wife's side of the family. Her Grandfather was John Francis Patrick Quirk. He was born January 28, 1878 (RC) to John Quirk and Nora Ahern. He married late in life (age 40) after retiring from the British Navy(?)/ sea. He was married in 1918 to a Mary Cathereen McMahon in Trenton, Ontario Canada. He lived the rest of his life in Peterborough, Ontario Canada and died there in 1954. His birth place is unknown, a place called Lottenhain has come up (?). I am sorry, but that is all the information that I have at this date.
