In reply to: Maureen McDermott Humphries Ref: Reply to Maureen McDermott Humphries I have some conflicting information. My grandfather John wrote the family history at different times in his life and didn't always write the same thing. There are also some oral tellings of the story. His father Michael (my great grandfather)was born in 1) 1820; 2) 1824; 3) was about 10 years old when he came to America as a cabin boy. He had six brothers and sisters (he was the youngest), "all born before 1824." All records agree he came to America in 1848 and married in 1852.

I have information on the birthdates of his children, but that is the best I can do on his dates.

Any information

My Great-great grandfather was Michael (Micky)McDermott. He married a Magan. He rented 26 acres in Pollymount Townland, Bumlin Parish. He had an uncle who was a priest. His children were:
Mary Ann (came to America in 1849)
Thomas (married a Miss Hughes and stayed on the family place.)
John (came to America in 1846)
Bridget (came to America in 1846)
Stephen (married Kate Cerak, came to America in 1849)
Anna (moved to England)
Michael (my great grandfather, came to America in 1848; married Rhoda Peckham in 1852.

Several of them were in Albany, Wisconsin for a time. The Place in Ireland had been rented by this family for 100 years when my grandfather (John) wrote what he knew about the family. (His note undated).
I am particularly interested in locating this farm in Ireland and also finding if I have any relatives in Ireland.

Hi Carol,

By typing
/invite colm@renview.com
in the form entry field, an email is sent to colm@renview.com inviting me to join you in the MacDermot Clan Room.
It also provides me with the URL or address for the chat room and informs me of who invited me.
Nothing actually shows up on your screen.
Re your nickname, if you did not use the exit button or quitted your browser and came back later, it would see you as a new user and would require a new nickname.
I tried to replicate your errors, but couldn't.

Thanks for the feedback.

it was working fine. Now, when I try to get into the pub,
I receive a message that the nickname is already in use.
Did I forget to check out? Can more than one person have

You are most welcome.

The more we all post raw information here the further up the family trees we can go. I hope the person I listed will open a new direction for you to look.
If the members would only list the family trees too, it would be a big help!

According to family lore my maternal great-grandfather
Joseph McDerment was born in County Derry in 1797. He
immigrated to America in 1817. Married Mary Strait in Bergen
Co.,NJ and in 1830 moved to Franklin Co. OH where my grand-
father James McCool McDerment was born in 1831. Natural-
ization papers issued in 1844 at Chillicothe OH, with the
name spelled McDermott. I would appreciate any information
that anyone could supply on this meager data.
