  • Name Patrick Boyle 
    Born Abt 1832  New Jersey Find all individuals with events at this location 
    Gender Male 
    DCAUSE Died in the Civil War. 
    • By careful comparison of available records and the process of elimination, I have been able to determine that Patrick was the brother who, "died in the war," as stated during a deposition by Patrick's younger brother James Boyle as part of the process to obtain a pension for service during the Spanish American War by the nephew of James Boyle, John Francis Boyle.
      Patrick was 18 when enumerated with his parents on the 1850 Census. Though not yet proven, it appears that most, if not all of Patrick's five brothers served in the Civil War. Certainly, his brother John Boyle did and there are matching names of some of the other brothers from the 1890 Special Census of Veterans but not yet proven.
      During his deposition in 1901, James Boyle named each of his brothers and how they died, with one exception. James simply stated that, "one brother died in the war." That one unnamed brother was Patrick according to the 1850 Census on which he appears with all of his brothers except Michael who James named in his deposition and gave his cause of death as "lockjaw."

  • Notes 
    • [Schimka.ged]

      DEATH: This unknown, male Boyle child died in the Civil War: Source is War with Spain pension file of John Francis Boyle, nephew of Hugh Boyle and son of John Boyle and Bridget Brannigan.

      16 August 2010 - Finally located the family in the 1850 census in Rhode Island under the last name spelling, "Ball". The name of the Unknown child was Patrick. I have therefor estimated the date of death to be "1863" central in the Civil War period.
