Hello Boyd, Where does Ardstraw-born CHARLES KNOX who married ELIZABETH RUSSELL, emigrated to Auckland, New Zealand and amassed a considerable fortune fit into this family? See my file: http://www.cotyroneireland.com/bornburied/BornTyroneDiedNewZealand.html#MRS._KNOX

I have researched both the Knox family of Glentimon and the Patton family of Seein extensively for two Americans who will be "cousins" of yours and I am sure they will be happy to share when I contact them. Both visited me, Margaret Kuska in 2015 and Patton Adams earlier this summer. If you check out my West Ulster Genealogy Facebook page, you will see reports of both research projects plus the visits of Margaret and Patton. On the Knox family especially I have a very large collection of data. Walter Knox, who had at least 8 siblings, was the son of a James Knox, 1772-1852, who married Martha Wilson, grandson of Walter Knox, who married Margaret McCrea, great grandson of Robert Knox, born c1710. This family has a huge connection around Sion Mills; they married into the Woods family, who now own the land. Walter had at least two children, James Patton Knox, who married Minnie Young and John Knox, who married Rose Cunningham, both brothers living in Iowa at the time. I have less on the Pattons because I never tied these Pattons into the Pattons I was researching. However, Walter's father, James Patton, 1795-1870, held Plot 8 in Seein, of circa 33 acres, where he lived along with an Eliza Patton, possibly his mother. Please feel free to contact me direct.

PRONI lists the will for Letitia Patton of Ballymagorry (died 27 June 1928), the wife of Patrick Patton, retired farmer. Under her maiden name, she is mentioned as “Letitia Chambers” in the will of her uncle John Knox at Drumenny (died 3 November 1898). It would appear that her mother was a Knox from a family at Urney (and also Drumenny), also that Letitia was a niece of Rev. Robert Knox, Linenhall Street, Belfast, and a granddaughter of Hugh Knox of Urney (lived at Stephenstown), the longstanding church elder who died at Urney on 2 July 1852. Should this help you, please do drop me a line.

From this transcription I learned where my Great, great Grandfather lived in Ireland. It continues to be a journey to find him in the US. Apparently his wife left and returned to Ireland with my great grandfather and his brother, only to die somewhere and leaving her two little boys with her Patton family. Fortunately, the boys return to the US with and are raised and educated by their uncle Thomas Patton. But previous history on the parents remains a mystery. Again many thanks for your excellent work.
