For approximately three weeks in May and June John Giacoletti and I made a research trip to Northern Ireland to gather information on some of the Defenders of Derry. I said I would post our findings to the various lists that had been contacted prior to our departure. To view all of our posts please go to the rootsweb.com main page and find the link to "threaded archives" Type in COWAN and search June and July 2002 and you will find some really interesting posts describing our research adventures. If you have any comments or questions please feel free to contact me at [email protected] Prior to the trip I offered four obscure, out-of-print publications that should be included in every Ulster Presbyterian's genealogical library. They all have either expired copyright provisions or, in the case of the Hagy thesis, I have the author's permission to reproduce the document. The publications are: "The Laggan and its Presbyterianism" and "In the Days of the Laggan Presbytery," 1905,1908, by the Rev. Alexander Lecky, B.A. member of the Royal Society of Antiquaries of Ireland, Belfast 211 pages We met JB Shannon, age 90, who assisted in the 1975 reprint and he said these books are still the BEST source for Ulster Presbyterian research. Books contain lists of former generations of Lagganeers, and their places of abode, which have never before appeared in print. "Fighters of Derry, Their Deeds and Descendants, being a Chronicle of Events in Ireland during the Revolutionary period 1688-1691," by William R. Young, 1932, Eyre and Spottiswoode, London, 350 pages. One of the most difficult sources to locate, in fact almost impossible. Contains biographical sketches (1200+) of the Defenders of Derry "A History of the Siege of Londonderry and Defence of Enniskillen in 1688 and 1689, with Historical Poetry and Biographical Notes," by the Rev. John Graham, M.A. Rector of Magilligan in the Diocese of Derry. Includes the Battles of the Boyne, Athlone, and Aughrim and the siege and capitulation of Limmerick by Lord Macaulay, Toronto, 1869 311 pages. Full of genealogical information about the families who were at Derry. "Castle's Woods: Frontier Virginia Settlement, 1769-1799, a thesis presented to the Faculty of the Department of History, East Tennessee State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts, by James Hagy, 1966, 150 pages. The most popular of the documents offered, this covers the families who settled in Russell county, Virginia when it was considered the frontier. And a new addition: "The Tinkling Spring, Headwater of Freedom" A Study of the Church and Her People, Howard McKnight Wilson, Fisherville, 1954 This book contains more genealogy of the early settlers of Augusta/Rockbridge Counties Virginia than any other. Baptismal records of the Rev. Craig and detailed analysis of many of the early families from the 1740's on. Please contact me privately at [email protected] for details on how to acquire these materials. It is very slow and cumbersome to contact each list individually so in the future I will be putting these and other items I deem valuable on abebooks.com Once again, I will be happy to answer any questions that have to do with the migration of Scots-Irish people from Ulster to Pa, Virginia and Tennessee. But remember, I probably don't know who your mamma is, I had a hard enough time figuring out who mine was. Regards, Robert Cowan 525 Harrogate Rd. Matthews, North Carolina 28105

I've now found an elderly lady,who says she always heard that John Dunn came over from Ireland when his brother died. she said that there was a fire in their house("probably drinking!" she said.and the brother died in the fire.I know that our John was b.in Va,so it could be that she's talking about his father,with the same name.She says they were from Northern Ireland.This is the only story that anyone has remembered about this family. This is truly a needle in the haystack.

Hi - I think that some of the Kernohan family/clan in Ahoghill parish in the early 19th century were friends with some of the Wiseman family of Ballywatermoy townland in Ahoghill Parish, and that branches of both of these families came to America in the middle 1830's and settled in Newburgh, New York State, at that time. I am a direct descendant of ARCHIBALD WISEMAN, once of Ballywatermoy, who is documented in the Ordnance Survey Memoirs to have left this area in Ahoghill back then. The direct Wiseman line in Newburgh had disappeared by 1920, but the Kernohans and their descendants live on, there, to this day. Bob Wilson, Stamford, CT, USA.

I apologies to those who receive more than one copy of this announcement. Greetings Listers Established IGP counties of Meath and Westmeath are available for adoption by an experienced County or Special Projects Coordinator. They can be adopted separately, but they have so much in common, with common sources of records and repositories, that one County Coordinator should administer both sites. The volunteer should live in the county, in Ireland or the UK, or at least had ancestors who lived in the county. That will give you a genealogical interest in the websites. For genealogists who are also interested in Ireland history, the Counties of Meath and Westmeath once composed the ancient Province and Kingdom of Meath. Some may recall that the King of Meath didn't play well with his neighbors, so his Kingdom was eventually absorbed by the Kingdoms of Leinster and Ulster. There is much bloody history there and records enough to keep one busy transcribing for years. To visit the counties: Meath http://www.rootsweb.com/~irlmea2/ Westmeath http://www.rootsweb.com/~irlwem2/ If interested, visit http://irelandgenealogyprojects.rootsweb.com/ and follow the instructions. Thanks all.....this is an unusual opportunity for some lucky person.

I am searching for some information on Callaghan/Callahan. Family record show Philip,William, James, Susan,Ann and Patrick arriving Australia from 1841 onwards. All records have only stated Cavan as place of origin. Parents are: John Philip Callaghan and Bridget Frances Moore. A cousin Patrick Fox - parents James Fox and Mary Moore, also emigrated with the Callaghan siblings. Do any of these names seem familiar in anyone's family. We have reached a brick wall. Maree.

Good morning to all.. I have been trying to figure out the roots of this KIRKPATRICK family for some time now, and have hit a huge brick wall..Here is what I have... John KIRKPATRICK m. Elizabeth MONTGOMERY in Aghavea, Fermanagh, Ireland, on Jan 13, 1813. He had 2 sons that we know of. Supposedly he and his wife immigrated to Canada with the two sons. We know the sons were there, but have found no proof of John and Elizabeth being there. I think there were more children than the 2 boys, but not able to prove that so far.. We have a distant relative (She is 94) still living in Lisnaskea.. I would love to sort this puzzle out while she is still living.. One of the things I am trying to figure out if John #1(m. Elizabeth) was indeed the father of a John KIRKPATRICK (#2) b. 1/20/1862 (?) and who married a Mary DOUGLAS.. They had 6 children John b.7-6-1855, William 26-2-1860, Hugh 20-1-1862, Thomas 20-4-1864, MaryJane 8-7-1860 & Elizabeth 14-9-1860. KIRKPATRICK b. 1/20/1862.. Hugh married Mary McCLLELAND, and they had 6 children. Douglas, Hubert, Florence(Florrie), Maud, Mary Elizabeth(Molly), and Edith. If anyone has any info on this family and/or sees any connection Please, PLEASE contact me.. I do have more info., and would love to find someone who is researching any of these families.. Thanks for taking the time to read this.. Have a great day.. Bonnie Kirkpatrick in the Thumb of Michigan Bonnie Kirkpatrick in the Thumb of Michigan

Thanks Fred. You didn't do wrong. It's just that it is hard enough sorting our grandfathers and grandmothers out while ignoring their politics. As genealogists we love each other and ignore the past....and if history comes up, discuss it dispassionately. Anywhere in Ireland, but particularly in Ulster and North Ireland, whenever religion or politics are mentioned, the fire is only a moment away. Thanks to all for keeping this list user friendly.
