samclem, do you have an address where he lived? I live in the area and I’m curious.
There is no cemetery with that name in the Philadelphia archdiocese. Do you know where it is?
When I type “St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic Cemetery, Norristown, PA” into google maps, it returns a strip mall shopping center that has been there for many years.
I’ll see if I can find it. “St. Patricks” does ring a bell.
There’s one in Kennett Square.

Find a grave has a St. Patricks in Norristown, but looking through the M names, I can’t find them. Of course, Find a Grave is not necessarily complete.
That did it; now I know where it is. Thanks!
There’s a St. Patricks Cemetery right on Dekalb Pike in Norristown. I know exactly where it is. I drive by it often, I just didn’t know the name.
