Biographies

In what is referred to as Bathurst convict rebellion a group of convicts led by Ralph Entwistle took to bushranging and terrorising local residents. They became known as "Ribbon Boys"(said to be by streamers in their hats) till their activies led to the murder of James Greenwood "Eliza 1822" a convict overseer at local property on 23 September 1830. In addition to Patrick other members of the gang were ; Ralph Entwistle (John 1827), William Gahan (Eliza 1829), Michael Kearney (Governor Ready 1829), Dominic Daley (Ferguson 1829), Robert Webster (Grenada 1821), James driver (Lord Melville 1829), John Kenny (Governor Ready 1829), Thomas Dunne (Sophia 1829) and John Sheppard (Norfolf 1829). Authorities responded quickly soon locating the group and bringing them to justice. Ten men were convicted at Bathurst Supreme Court on 30 October 1830 and sentenced to death. Patrick along with nine others were hanged on 3 November 1830 at Bathurst NSW. Source; Sydney Gazette NSW advertiser 4 Sept 1830 p3, 23 Sept 1830, 30 Oct 1830 & 11 Nov 1830
