Shirley,

There are 3 Patrick Murrays listed in the 1920 census of Maine. Two are
about the right age - born in 1871 and 1873, but none were born in
Canada. (one in Maine and two in Ireland) While we frequently get the
birth location wrong, I looked at both of these men and neither seems
like a good fit. The Patrick of Bath has a Canadian wife, Maude, three
children, (Frank, Charles and Mary) an uncle Allan McDonald, and a
cousin Joseph Murray living with him. I checked the entire US for a
Patrick Murray born in Nova Scotia or Canada with no luck (age did not
match) I thought he might have turned up in the WWI draft registration
(aliens had to register), but no luck there either. I also checked 1910
and 1930.
