Patrick Gilmore's daughter, Minnie L. Gilmore, was an author in her own right. Her published works include "Songs from the Wings," "Pipes from the Prairieland," "A Son of Esau," and "The Woman Who Stood Between." One of her verses, from "Songs from the Wings," is entitled "To my father--Patrick Sarsfield Gilmore": "Though he is dead, I still may do/ Him honor, by a life akin/ To that pure life my childhood knew,/ His fatherheart within./ And for the true musician's place,/ You claimed a throne beside the priest;/ Since both, you said, redeemed the base,/ And blessed both great and least." In this song, her verse was set to music by Alfred George Robyn (1860-1935) a composer of light opera and founder of the Marion English Opera Company in New York. Balmer and Weber Music House Company, [c.] 1892.
