Biography

Patrick, variously spelled, McQuade, McWade, Wade, McQuaid etc, was a weaver. He was possibly born about 1761. Or 1771.

There is possibly an earlier catholic marriage than the Anglican one in Eccles.

Patrick and Ann Shuttleworth had a son, William who was baptised at St Mary's Catholic Church on Mulberry St, in Manchester in 1803.

Banns were read for Patrick and Ann at Eccles in May 1805. The marriage took place on the 11th August 1805, both were said to be of that parish. A transcription on the online parish clerk says Patrick was 31 and Ann 22. I'm not sure this is correct as Ann on the 1841 census and her death is 10 years older - perhaps 32? A death that I think MAY be his has him 10 years older as well.

Their son, Owen was baptised in September 1805 at St Chad's catholic church in Manchester.

Their daughter, Bridget was baptised in Nov 1807 at St Mary's, Mulberry Street.

Their daughter, Elizabeth was baptised Jan 1816 at St Chad's. She is possibly the girl, aged 16 months, abode Manchester, buried in May 1817, Manchester Cathedral records.

Their son, James was baptised in Jun 1810 at St Mary's.

There was possibly a John baptised in 1813, but the transcription has only ? for mother's surname - there was another Patrick and Ann (Ashcroft), so I'm unable to determine.

Their son, Henry was baptised in May 1819 at St Mary's, Mulberry St.

Was he the Patrick McQuade wounded at Peterloo, who was a weaver and lived at Pump Street?

Their son, Owen was born in Dec 1823 baptised in Jan 1825.

There was a Patrick buried in Dec 1824, the abode Manchester. The burial through the Manchester Cathedral. He was 63, which gives a birth of around 1761.

His daughter, Bridget has an illegitimate child in Dec 1825 - and then seems to have three more. I wondered if this is linked to the 1824 death?

The Patrick at Pump street still seems to be there until 1828, when it is just McQuade and then 1831 an Ann appears. However, there was another Patrick and Ann, so it is difficult to determine.
