Derry (Londonderry) / Re: McIlfactrick origins
« on: Friday 27 September 13 14:34 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I'm another who has just found this thread. I'm part of the "Scottish" family, and can confirm that they all emigrated to Victoria or, in Hugh's case, South Australia. During their time in Scotland they adopted the name Kilpatrick.
The family came from the townland of Crossland, and I've been trying to link my ancestor John Mcilfatrick to the other families of that name in the district. There are some interesting connections through church records, etc., but the information available seems too incomplete to reliably link him to any of them.
If anyone here can shed any light, I would be most grateful.
