Patrick and Lucinda were married by Rev. F. X. Labonte. Their witnesses were Joseph Ryan, Jane Girardot, Maurice Girardot, and Ellen Ryan. Patrick was a railroad section foreman and a farmer. They didn't have children. Patrick and Lucinda lived at Gar Creek in Allen County, Indiana. My grandmother, Etta Falls Townsend remembered the farm of Uncle Pat and Aunt Lucindy. They had a big shepard dog that guarded the farm, and no one came up to the house until they told the dog it was okay. Patrick was 85 years, 1 month and 8 days old when he died. Patrick's obituary reads, "Services for Patrick Thomas Ryan, 85, will be Thursday at 8:30 a.m. at the residence, R. R. 2, Gar Creek Road, New Haven, and at 9 a.m. at the St. Louis Besancon Catholic Church. Burial will be in the church cemetery. Mr. Ryan died at 5:50 a.m. Monday at his home.
