Morning Debra, We are looking for a connection to your Pattersons. We have a John Patterson b. 1760 in Bucks Co., PA, son of John Patterson b. 1709/1730. The father and family ended up in North Carolina where the father died 1790. The son, John, ended up in St. Louis County, Missouri. Would love to be in touch. Will share whatever we have. Aloha, Marilyn Patterson Devaney and Dan Devaney Genealogy4999@aol.com
