Recorded as aged 48 on death burial records. Note that the age reported in Census 1901 is 40, presumably he underexaggerated his age. Also people from this time often did not have a good idea of exactly how old they were, and often thought that they were a couple of years younger than they really were, so he may have been born earlier than 1853.

        SUICIDE IN COUNTY LIMERICK

        A sad case of suicide is reported from near Fedamore. It appears that Mr. Patrick Conway, a respectable farmer, residing near that place, was in Limerick on Tuesday and returned home in his usual health and spirits. He retired to bed at the customary early hour, but got up about half-past ten p.m., telling his wife that he wanted to see a sick cow. His wife suggested to him to send the servant boy, but he decided on going himself. A considerable time elapsed, and as Mr. Conway did not return, his wife thought the cow required attention, and accordingly asked the boy to go and give assistance. On proceeding to the cow-house he found Mr. Conway was not there, but on searching further discovered his body hanging from a rafter in another outhouse. He was suspended by the reins of a horse. No motive can be assigned for the rash deed, and great sympathy is felt for Mr. Conway's wife and relatives in their affliction.
