Hi Thomas. I don’t know which monument you are referring to? I don’t think I have any pictures of a monument to Roger Kirkpatrick. Which Roger? Thanks! :)

What do you know of your Kirkpatrick line? I know most of mine going back to 1770.

Hi Dawn, I am also a descendant of Mary Margaret Kirkpatrick and James Andrew McClurkin who left Ireland in 1848. I would also be interested to see if any of your Kirkpatricks are related to our Kirkpatricks.

Nice to meet you, Margaret! I would be really interested to see what you posted on the website. If you find the link can you share? I’m hoping to be able to make some time to do genealogy this weekend so I’ll touch base if I do!

Hey, Dawn! I’m another Kirkpatrick descendent. Jeanie and I are cousins. Her father and my father were both interested in family genealogy, but most of their research was done pre-internet (in fact all my father’s was). Maybe we can make some progress now that so many sources are on line world wide. I posted years ago on a Kirkpatrick websie and recently someone responded. I’ll go back and look to see what he said about his Kirkpatricks. You might be inbterested. Nice to meet you, cousin.

Hi Jeanie! You’re the first Irish Kirkpatrick I’ve heard from. Are you in Ireland now? I am going to email you directly so we can see if we can figure out a connection. :)

My Parents have put together some research of our line of the Kirkpatrick Family from Northern Ireland. My Great, great Grandparents were Mary Margaret Kirkpatrick McClurkin and James Andrew McClurkin who left Ireland, County Antrim, for America. Mary Margaret was the daughter of Elizabeth and Joesph Kirkpatrick of Loughloughan. James Kirkpatrick of Ballylig was the brother of my great great Grandmother, Mary Margaret. This James died in 1896 at the age of 92. My father believed that our family did in fact move from Scotland to Northern Ireland.. We believe our family was in or around Ballymena Ireland as early at 1720, but have little information.

Hi Edwina – nice to meet you! I will check my database and email you directly, if that’s okay. :)
