1910 approx - Patrick Sweeney

Patrick Sweeney, the eldest of six children born to Thomas Sweeney and Margaret Sweeney nee Meehan, was born in 1838 in Flinders St, Melbourne, and grew up at Culla Hill, the family property in Eltham.

Pat and his wife Mary (Fitzsimons), who had been living in "Mount Pleasant" in Eltham, moved in 1881 and settled in North Fitzroy.

Pat died in 1919. His address at the time of his death was 577 Rae St, North Fitzroy, where he lived with his daughter Ellen (Nessie) and her husband. This is probably where this photo was taken.
