Person in this family
Patrick Joseph McGuire
1 October 1896 – 11 November 1978
A Patrick Joseph McGuire was a miner and Labor branch secretary at Marburg in the Ipswich district; the source does not give age or parents, so identity with the man recorded here is plausible but unproved. A likely Patrick Joseph from the right small district was active in both mining and local Labor politics, publicly pressing the council for proper sanitary facilities in Marburg. The identity needs a civil or electoral record before publication as certain.
Partly proved
Patrick Joseph McGuire reportedly lived from 1896 to 1978; a Marburg miner and Labor secretary of that name may be the same man, but this is unproved.

Life
Our family tree calls Patrick Joseph McGuire a son of James McGuire and Margaret Ellen Hickey, born on 1 October 1896 and dead on 11 November 1978. No original birth or death record in this archive confirms those details.
A local history places a man of the same name in the Ipswich district in 1946:
Patrick Joseph McGuire, a miner and Secretary of the Marburg Branch, A.L.P. appealed for the erection of a sanitary convenience at Marburg,
This records both an occupation and a role in the Australian Labor Party branch, but it gives no age or relatives. The name and district make him a candidate for the man in the tree, not a proven match. These activities should not be attributed to the family member as fact until a civil or electoral record connects the two identities.
How we know this: The family details are recorded here without supporting documents, and the potentially informative Marburg record belongs to an unconfirmed same-name candidate. [1][2]

What we still don't know
- Was the Marburg miner and Labor branch secretary this Patrick Joseph McGuire?
- Can civil records confirm his parents and life dates?
- Where did he live and work outside the 1946 candidate reference?
- Search Marburg electoral rolls, miners' records, Queensland BDM, and the November 1978 death notices; verify parents before accepting the local-history candidate.
