Calvary in 1931.  See Patrick and Bridget McIntyre's Gravesite post.  It is believed these photos show the original grave site in St. Mary's Cemetery.

Patrick and Bridget McIntyre's Gravesite

Patrick and Bridget (Stevens) McIntyre are buried in Mt. Calvary Catholic Cemetery in Portland, Oregon.  They were originally buried in St. Mary's Catholic Cemetery located in southern Portland and their remains were moved to Mt. Calvary in 1931.  Joanie Zandona writes in a September 24, 2013 email that Mt. Calvary Cemetery has a "very large Irish-Catholic presence at the cemetery with a large Celtic cross placed at the front-left of the cemetery [See below].  It was in honor of the Great Irish Potato Famine of 1845-1852, which caused over a million Irish to immigrate to America."

Patrick and Bridget are buried in a plot owned by the Flahertys.  Ellen McIntyre Flaherty is their youngest daughter.  See the Flaherty Gravesite at Mt. Calvary Cemetery post for additional Flaherty  information.
