I am a new member and I read your message about Pattersons in Cumberland.
James Patterson b Whitehaven 1833 is my 4xGgrandfather.
He married Nancy(Ann) Ferguson b MaryPort, in Cockermouth in 1854
They appear on the 1881 census Distington , he was a shoemaker.
Their daughter Mary married my ggrandfather Jacob Burns 12 Nov 1877. There were at least 8 more siblings Andrew b 1856, Duke, John, Margaret, James, Jane Frances and Thomasb 1881
They Mary and Jacob, had 4 children, including my grandmother NANCY Burns in 1879 born in Hensingham, before moving to County Durham about 1889/90
I would be very grateful of any more Patterson information, as I have hit a brick wall, and can only assume that they came from Ireland (as did the Burns family) - BUT WHERE in Ireland - I just have no clues and would be very grateful of any help from an 'expert'!
