Donovan moved to Youngstown from Ohio thirty-five years ago [1841] and has during the greater part of his residence there worked as foreman on the works at Fort Niagara. His family consisted of himself and wife, three daughters and three sons. The children were so advanced in years as to be able to care for themselves. They moved in good society, and were known only to be respected. One of the sons, Edmund, has taught school in the village. The two older sons, John and Cornelius, are contractors and have been working in the State of Michigan during the present season. The daughters have remained at home.
Patrick's wife, Julia Donovan, was buried in the Catholic Cemetery on Oak Street. Her tombstone shows that she was born April 1818 and died Sept. 21, 1876. Patrick is also buried there. He was born March 16, 1812, and died March 3, 1900. He lived to be 88 years old. Daughter Margaret recovered from her injuries and by 1880 she had become a 24-year-old school teacher who was living with her sister, Mary Donovan, in Youngstown.
