  • Notes 

    • Peter was born in St John's County, New Brunswick, Canada, the son of Nicholas Sinnott and his wife, Catherine Fitzpatrick. At a date as yet unknown, Peter married Mary Catherine Breen. She was also a native of St. John's County, New Brunswick.

      On April 29, 1849, the couple arrived in New York. Their first two children, Elizabeth (about 1852) and Mary Catherine (about 1853) were born.

      Peter Jr was born in 1854 and William James was born in 1855. Both of the boys were born in Boston, Massachusetts.

      Sometime after that, the family moved to Providence, Rhode Island. Madaline, Eleanor, Florina, Louise, Nicholas Vincent and Nellie were all born there. Nicholas, Florina and Louise passed away when they were babies.

      Peter was a shopkeeper in Providence, selling wholesale liquor. He was also a member of an organization called Adopted Citizens of Rhode Island. For a time he served as its secretary.

      On November 19, 1863, Peter became a Naturalized Citizen. This took place in the US Circuit Court in Providence, Rhode Island.

      Sometime prior to April, 1873, Peter traveled to his family home in Enniscorthy, County Wexford, Ireland. It's unclear if this was a visit or on family business. Unfortunately, he contracted bronchitis while there.

      On May 12, 1873, the Providence Evening Press ran Peter's death notice. It says he passed away in Enniscorthy on April 26th. As of this writing, its unclear if he was buried in Ireland or if his body was returned to the United States and he was buried in Providence.

      His Find a Grave memorial number is 126452751
