Hello Listers, I have been a member of the Kerry List for several years and a friend from that list suggested I try this list since my surname may have Palatine origins. I am the great, great grandson of John and Ellen Patt. Apparently my great, great grandparents were married in St. Mary's Church in Limerick in 1823 (date approximate). They lived in the townland of Littor, near Ballylongford in North Kerry. Ellen worked as a house servant in the Littor House, now owned by the King family. I have communicated with Genevieve King the current resident and owner. She was a small child when my GGGM worked there. She could not give me much info. John Patt and Ellen Fitzgerald. Ellen was born 3/21/1802, John in 1804. Ellen's parents were William Fitzgerald and Eliza Mc Mahon. Both John and Ellen died in their 70th year. They had six children: Ellen (1827), Honora (1829), Margaret (1832), Bridget (1835), Thomas (1841) and Mary (1844). I have a good deal of info about Thomas, a little more about Bridget, but just what is here about his other sisters. I would be eternally appreciative if you could direct me how I might to obtain John and Ellen's marriage certificate, any information about John, his parents, any siblings and any records on their six children listed above. Thank you and God bless, Robert Pattwell 283 Michigan Avenue Massapequa Park, New York 11762, U.S.A. goldcastle@earthlink.net <mailto:goldcastle@earthlink.net>
