He is believed to be the Philip J. Meredith whose death was announced in 1904 in the New York Herald, which described him as the father of the late Rev. C.A. Meredith. Although brought up in the Church of Ireland, he was buried in the Catholic cemetery of Calvary; his conversion dated presumably from the time of his marriage.
