Just wanted to drop in and say hello to the fellow Patricks!

I've only just registered, but been reading the threads for a while.  A lot of the infomation you posted really helped.  Where many of your line come from Jeremiah Patrick in VA, my descends from his brother Jack.

Thanks for all the work you've put in, and I'm please to have found y'all.

Hello,Im looking for help.My greatgrandmother was born Elizabeth Patrick in Kilsyth,Stirling,Scotland around1880.Her parents wera James Patrick and Jean Weir ,they were married in Kilsyth,Stirling,Scotlandin 1875.rI havent found anything further back nor was I able to find if their were any other siblings.Elizabeth married William Newhouse in Elkton Ohio .Had 1 sonwho was my grandfather.As a child my mother told me hooooow she lived with her grandmother off and on also that she went by Lizzie and the she did see and hold me .Elizabeth (Lizzie)died shortly after my birth in 1958 . Im trying to find out more about her family

While there is scant evidence to support the claim, the MacPartick or Patrick were directly connected with the McPhadricks who trace their ancestry back to Hugh O' Neal, that last of the great Irish chiefs.  Mackechnie's (sic) seminal work is about the best historical family compilation available to us.  

While it is maintained (see "The History of the Clan Lamont, 1934"), that this branch of the Lamont are direct decedents of the McPhadrick Lamonts of Coustoun, Argyllshire, specific genealogical reference is absent. Lamont of Coustoun, the McPhadrick Lamonts of Coustoun were located on the western shore of Loch Striven, just about directly across the loch from the lands of Knockdow. In the old days, their geographic position isolated them, except for travel by sea. Even today, there are no major roads to the Coustoun lands. The first record of the Lamonts of Coustoun, was a charter witnessed by Patrick Ladman of Calstane, in 1498. Shortly after this, the name McPhadrick is found in land titles. Papers from 1541 show the McPhadricks to be part of Clan Lamont, and subject to the chief. In 1646, seven McPhadrics were murdered at Dunoon by the Campbells, including four sons of Baron McPhadrick, gentlemen of Coustoun. The last Baron McPhadrick, Cornelius, sold the estates to John of Kilfinan, a natural son of the chief, Archibald Lamont. And so ended the history of the least known of the Cadets families. The McPHADRICK LAMONTS held a strip of country between Ardbeg and Invernellbeg at Strone with CAMPBELLS and MacLACHLANS breathing down their necks. Four sons of BARON McPHADRICK OF COUSTON, with another of their family, met their deaths on the hanging tree at Dunoon. The last of the family moved to Newcastle in the 17th century. According to Hector McKechnie in his tomb, "The Lamont Clan 1235 - 1935", the McPhadricks were: "But the style of Baron" which attached to its owner, as to Monydrain and Knockdow certainly suggests a former independent holding of the Crown. This was probably inaugurated by some Patrick Lamont as the patronymic which was adopted was "McPhadrick" (though it 'was little to the fore till the 17th century). Doubtless the families of this surname, who are later found on the east side of the loch about Ardyne and Inverchaolain, are of the sept from those common men who perished on  the hanging tree at Dunoon. Some direct descendants of the gentlemen of MacPhadrick did survive the gruesome wrath of the Campbell's. MaKenchnie identified several, one being my great grandfather, the Clyde shipbuilder, Henry Lamont of Gripton and Greenlaw.  However, as is his style, MacKechnie fails to draw a direct line.  Instead he refers to a clerical letter sent to my 2nd, great grandfather , one W'm Lamont of Kilmarnock, Ayrshire asserting the connection was correct. MacKechnie leaves it there.

So many Patricks! Maybe I can make some progress with my ancestry research?

Wow, glad I found this post. I'm new here, but Dennis (Denpat55) is my uncle. On another note, I am currently living in Lacey, Washington (for you other Patricks living in Washington).

Hello,

Trying to locate the parents of Ezekiel Patrick born (or baptized) January 7 1759.  This is confusion with the Ezekiel born in 1760 in Lancaster PA.  They have different places of death.

The RWP transcribed has Ezekial enlisting in Elizabeth town NC, in the Bladen County Regiment.  He was in the Battle of Brown Marsh and Wilmington.  I have more information on this is this would help.

He states that he was wanting to serve with his 3 brother, William, Daniel, and Samuel Patrick.  I know from teh County Tax Poll that Daniel and Samuel are listed in Bladen County in 1763.  I beleive they may be his brothers.  William was wounded at Hanging Rock, Broad River which I beleive was Wayne's Brigade.  Unfortunately Ezekiel did not get to serve with his brother during the second term as he had hoped.

The deposition for R7996, fn28NC was given October 23, 1833 in Perry County KY. 

After the War he Lived near Charelston SC, then Carter County TN, Russell County VA, and in 1827 moved to Perry at least through 1833.

We have record of him living in Clay County KY with his daughter Elizabeth (widowed) and near his son Daniel, also living in Clay County.

Whether he is Scot or Scot-Irish we don't know yet.  Still searching.  If anyone has any information, I would greatly appreciate it. 

Thanks!!!

James

John Walter Patrick came to Virginia sometime in the 1600’s, but I have no idea where they came from in England or when. I do know they landed in Virginia and settled in Charles Parish, York County, Virginia. If anyone knows anything about this line of Patrick's, please share your knowledge.

 I actually live in York County VA

Any time I was researching, when I came accross anything that related to a name that was in my ancestry, i copied it and saved it. This was just one of the things i came across. My Patrick History goes back that I can link to a Walter Patrick born 1652. The only thing other than his birth and death was that he came from England. He died in 1678 in Virginia. My Grandmother was a Sweet. The Sweets came from England in 1630 to New England. Her mother was a Beeman. They came from Scotland. My Mother's side of the family were Rae's. They came over in the 1850's, from a small town outside of Glasgow, Scotland. So I have a lot to research.

Hello - it seem that we are also related, as I also trace my ancestry back to Jeremiah Patrick and Sally Blair!

Soooooo excited to meet others of the Sept...
