  • Notes 

    • Nicholas was born March 18, 1903 in Enniscorthy, County Wexford, Ireland. He was the son of Peter Aloysius Sinnott and his wife, Catherine Malarkey, who were both United States citizens of recent Irish descent.

      The 1911 Irish Census lists Nicholas living with his parents and sister, Eleanor, at 29 Sandwith St, in Dublin. The census says that all four lived in one room.

      Nicholas died on May 4, 1925 at the age of 22 and is buried with his family in Dean's Grange Cemetery in Dublin, #25-F3-North. The cemetery records say that he died at 38 Denzile St. On 11 Mar 2014, I checked Google Earth, but could not find a Denzile St. I did, however, find a Denzille Lane.

      Family lore says that he was imprisoned during the Easter Rising in 1916 and died either in prison or after being released. This doesn't sound correct, as Nicholas would have only been 13 at the time. However, these is an outside chance that he could have taken a small part in the rebellion, but I don't know how to find that out.

      Nicholas's Find A Grave memorial number is 36159144
