my grandfathers name is Paul Partington and his real mother was Alice McCormick and we are trying to find more information on them if anyone can help
Hi Brooke,

Your info. is rather vague...

It would be an idea to post relevant details for your g/f i.e. where/when born (full address) & all details on mother e.g. her usual address?

Was he adopted/brought up by another family?

If your g/f is deceased you can post his 'real' birth name too.

Newcastle-on-Tyne/Durham (Northumberland):- Harrison, Jude, Kemp, Lunn, Mellon, Robson, Stirling

Interesting site on MacCormicks Island, I landed on this many years ago, nice wee harbour,
John Paul Jones apparently landed on it for ship repairs. ;D

Hi not entirely sure how this site works, but came across your ancestor Bryan McCormick.  Brian would be my great great uncle.  His Parents Sara McArdel, born 1795, and James McCormick, born 1795, are my direct ancestors, being my Great Great Great Grandparents.

Bryan was born in Crossmaglen Ireland in 1818 and died in Argyll Scotland in 1873.

Somewhere along the way here in Ireland at least, the name changed to McCormack and that was the surname of my maternal grandparents.  So in the 1901 Census the family here in Ireland went by McCormick, but by the 1911 Irish Census the surname was McCormack.

Would love to find out more about the ancestry.
