Many thanks to Eugene and other members of your branch of Tormeys who have very generously shared information with me in the past. Philip arrived at Ellis Island aboard the ship Mauetania. Philip died in Sea View Hospital Staten Island NY, August 7, 1914 from TB. He address at the time of death was given as 234 E 54th Street, Manhattan. Sea View was a sanitarium for TB patients. The buildings are still there still (the grounds are beautiful) there but it no longer a hospital. He was the son of Thomas and Louise McManus Tormey. Philip is buried in Calvary Cemetery which is located in Queens. When WIlliam and Katie arrived from Mullingar the relative named on the manifest was Philip. He was living at 1092 3rd Ave Brooklyn.
Marybeth Tormey Stevens has done extensive research and has has information about Patrick, Thomas's father and his siblings. Best regards, Mary-Deirdre
