He was somehow associated with Bantry Castle. He left Ireland, also in the 1600's and came to America.My family has never said anything about being English. But I do keep in mind that England was also a country that controlled other countries. It controlled, France, Scotland and Ireland. My PA roots are deep and my family is buried all over, Chester Co and Del, Co. . My familys farm was on Shilo Rd. in Westown. Mary Jane
