Lawrence Mc Dermott

Post by Bernie Cunningham »

I am looking for descendants of Lawrence or <br>Laurence Mc Dermott who lived on a hill outside<br>Kiltychogher. The house is no longer there. His<br>nickname was "John Pat Larry". Does this ring a <br>bell for anyone.?? In the Irish way, does this <br>mean that his father was Patrick and his grand<br>father was John.?? Help. Bernie

Bernie <p>Dear Bernie:<br>My Great Grandfather was Lawrence McDermott, the son of Patrick McDermott and Bridget Fahey. He was married to Bridget Moran, daughter of Cornelius Moran and Bridget Carney. I have this from an old Family Tree that is entitled "McDermott of Tonnlagee, County Roscommon." It contains no dates; but I would estimate that Lawrence would fit your parameters. I have no idea where Tonnlagee is other than a suspicion that it is near the town of Elphin. <br>Regarding "John Pat Larry," Lawrence's father's name was Patrick and he had siblings named John, Patrick, Thomas, Chris,Michael,James, Edward, and Bridget. Maybe he and his brothers John and Patrick were interchangeable peas in the pod.<br>Let me know if this helps.<br>All the Best,<br>Don McDermott<br>
