Brother and Sister Patricks,

A cousin needs help! He has hit a wall so I want to see if anyone out there has information that would move this forward. Personally, this is the first time I have encountered a Patrick migration via Holland but it's not unheard of.

What we are looking for is a connection that brings this line back to Scotland so that our cousin feels comfortable calling himself a Lamont. Here is the info I have. Any thoughts or idea's are appreciated!

Email as follows (See attached Tree)

Family notes list Luke's brother as Lewis Patrick and they were raised
around Orangeburg, SC (Lewis b. 1725). Everything that I have run across
stops in South Carolina. You are also correct about the boat from Holland
being an assumption. In researching I ran across a tidbit that stated most
ships ferried across the Atlantic from Holland during this time. Also,
Joseph Patrick (b.1728 - in S.C.) married a Mary Jung (from Holland) and
settled there. This is the furthest any information goes back. Unfortunately
I do not possess that key piece of information - parental names. I am left
with pieces.

Putting together the information that I had, and what I had read, led me to
think that my Patrick line boarded at ship in Holland (probably with more
Scots) and set sail for a new life Charleston, S.C. I am also still basing
this off the history of Colleton Co., S.C., being primarily a Scottish and
Dutch settlement. Given that, there has to be some information about the
Scottish peoples in this area of America during this time. There also could
be some connection with the Lord Proprieters of this area during
colonization. As Luke and his family stayed and farmed their lands between
the Edisto River Forks until the 1800s.

The family naming history utilized the names Luke and John for my three
oldest known relatives + his brother Lewis. I've attached a short geneaology
that I had compiled (rather poorly) from multiple internet resources. Most
of our family tree was confirmed via LDS website information.

Thanks again for all your help and attention.
