Brief History of Patrick and Bridget McIntyre

Patrick McIntyre (c1831-1901) married Bridget Stevens (c1829-1908) on March 3, 1851 in St. Attracta’s Roman Catholic Church, Toulestrane, County Sligo, Ireland. They had eleven known children. The first five were born in Ireland: Edward (1852-1931); Bartholomew (1854-1924); Mary (1856-1934); Dominick (c1860-1932); and Catherine (1861-1914). Patrick, his wife and five children, left Ireland in 1863 sailing on the SS Orient into New York harbor and finally settling in San Francisco, California where the last six children were born: John Dunn (1864-a1908); Elizabeth (1867-1869); William (1869-1879); James (1871-1874); Thomas (c1874-a1931); and Ellen (1879-1963). Patrick and Bridget homesteaded in Oregon in the 1880s. Patrick died in 1901 and Bridget died in 1908. They are both buried in Mt. Calvary Cemetery, Portland, Oregon.

Patrick's parents, Edward (c1805/6-1881) and Ann McIntyre (c1803/07-1889), both born in Ireland, also came to the US settling in the San Francisco area. From the records, it appears Edward and Ann came a few years before Patrick.

Patrick and Edward McIntyre/McIntire - San Francisco 1861-1883

The entries have been transcribed from the San Francisco City Directory, compiled by Henry G. Langley and cover the years 1861-1884.  Patrick McIntyre (c1831-1901) homesteaded in Oregon in 1880 and does not appear in the San Francisco directories after 1880.  Of note are other individuals (in various colors) who appear to live at the same/similar addresses as Patrick or are otherwise connected.  The Directory dates often reflect the locations of individuals from the prior year as it took several months to compile directories in the 19th century. The color codes are explained at the bottom of the page.

Of particular note: No Edward McIntyre living in San Francisco can be located in the 1860 U. S. Federal Census. Additionally, no Edward and Ann(ie) McIntyre can be located living in the US in 1860.  No 1860 San Francisco City Directory has been located.
