Charlie, Were did your Witherspoon emigrate to in America? There is a 1740s family in South Carolina right below Myrtle Beach? Colin Brooks The 1718 project In a message dated 5/3/2010 7:16:08 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: Am searching for collaborative information on two of my SCT ancestors who migrated to Co Tyrone and/or Derry. The names are WITHERSPOON/WOTHERSPOON and PETTIGREW. Both families would have migrated before 1700. The PETTIGREWs settled at Crilly House near Aughnacloy, Co Tyrone, where my immigrant ancestor, James III was born in 1713. He married Mary Ann COCHRAN in Co Tyrone 7 Oct 1731. His parents are supposedly James II and Martha MOORE PETTIGREW. Looking for any information on Martha. They came to America in Nov 1741, where their daughter, Martha, married John WITHERSPOON. The WITHERSPOON family, strong Presbyterians, may, just MAY, have migrated to the Derry area of NIR in the late 1690s My immigrant, John, was supposedly born in Londonderry c1725-26. He came to America c1740. Would appreciate any info, particularly on the WITHERSPOONs in Derry.
