It has come to my attention recently that the PATERSON family of Middleton that has been my search objective, may also be known as PATTRICKSON.  The time frame is late 1700's to early 1800's.  I have two sisters, Ann and Elizabeth, whose name was PATERSON, however, now I have apparently found a brother, William PATTRICKSON.  Ann was  born in Middleton, ca 1796 and married in Carrigrohane to a British Army Artillery soldier in 1818.  She was married in the Church of Ireland so I am judging they are Protestant.  I think the brother, William, was born ca 1795-1797. I would be interested in making contact with anyone who has a connection with PATERSON/PATTRICKSON from this area. Bonnie House
