Hi Maurice,
I've moved your post to a new thread of its own because it had no relevance in the thread you originally posted in.
Some questions which might enable other people to help you:
Do I presume you've obtained Patrick's birth date and parents' names from a baptism register relating to Timplenoe?
Have you looked for a death certificate in New Zealand for Patrick? I know Australian death certificates have a lot more information on them than English and Welsh ones do. Not sure about NZ ones.
Have you looked to see if NZ cemetery records are online? Tried Billiongraves and Findagrave for a photograph of a memorial?
Do you think he married in NZ, or is there a chance that he might have married in Ireland?

Maurice,
I've corrected the birth year in both the thread heading, and in the first post of this thread.

I've just checked the Irish birth record and it has him as Patrick Connell, not O'Connell
