It's possible Patrick emigrated to the United States and settled in San Francisco. There's an Ellis Island record for a Thomas Cronin, believed to be a son of Johanna Cunningham and Tom Cronin, who was headed to San Francisco to join his brother Patrick.
  F vi

Ellen emigrated to the United States as a young woman and settled in San Francisco. She was joined there in 1899 by her sisters Anne and Nora.
  F vii

  F viii
Margaret CRONIN was born about 17 Oct 1876 in prob. Leitrim, Newtownsandes (Moyvane), Co. Kerry and was christened 17 Oct 1876 in Newtownsandes (Moyvane), Co. Kerry.

It seems Margaret and Anne were twins. Because another Margaret was born to Tom and Johanna about seven years later, it's likely this Margaret died as a child.
  M ix
Thomas CRONIN was born about 1879 in prob. Leitrim, Newtownsandes (Moyvane), Co. Kerry. He died in poss San Francisco.

Tom and Johanna had either a son named Thomas or a close relative named Thomas Cronin who emigrated to San Francisco - a grandniece of Tom and Johanna, Nancy Manley, remembers a relative named Thomas Cronin often visting her parents in San Francisco (she also remembers a relative by the name of Mulvihill who visited). Based on this information, an Ellis Island record was located for a Thomas Cronin from Leitrim, Co. Kerry who emigrated in 1902 and was headed for San Francisco to join his brother Patrick. It seems likely therefore that this Thomas was a son of Tom and Johanna, although Thomas was not among the children of Tom and Johanna for whom birth or baptismal records were located. According to the ship manifest for Thomas's voyage, his brother Patrick lived at 48 Prospect St. in San Francisco, which was also the address of his probable cousin Josie O'Connor whose sister Nora travelled on the same voyage to the States as Thomas. It's believed by the family that Thomas never married.

Jer or John MULVIHILL was born in Aughrim, Moyvane, Co. Kerry. He died date unknown. Jer married Brigid (Biddy) CUNNINGHAM on 1861.

Could Jer/John have been somehow related to Daniel (Danny) Joseph Mulvihill who was born on 15 November 1899 in Kilbaha and who emigrated to the US in 1920. Danny eventually settled in Chicago where he co-founded Comhaltas North America (Comhaltas is an organisation set up to promote traditional Irish music, song, dance and language). In case there is a connection, here is some further information on Danny taken from a tribute on www.moyvane.com:

Danny was the second child and first boy in a family of eleven children. He attended school in Moyvane until 1915 when his mother passed away leaving his father with the responsibility of eleven children with the oldest 16 years of age and the youngest just an infant. Sometime around 1918 he became a volunteer in the Kerry Brigade of the Irish Republican Army and because of his involvement in IRA activities he was forced to leave Ireland in 1920. He lived in New York for about a year before moving to Chicago where he would spend the rest of his life. In Chicago he worked as a conductor for the Surface Lines Transit Systems and after 12 years there he joined the Chicago Fire Department and retired as a Lieutenant in 1963. Danny married Mary Agnes Mulvihill from Ballybunion, Co. Kerry and they had two children, Danny and Mary-Jane. Danny (senior) died on 5 February 1996.

It's known Danny's youngest sibling was Maurice who was born shortly before his mother's death in 1915. Maurice died in September 2007 in Co. Sligo to where he and his wife, Winnie O'Hara, had retired having spent many years in London.

And could Jer/John have been related to a Fr. Michael Mulvihill who was born in 1847 in Aughrim to Patrick Mulvihill and Hannah Walsh?
