Hoping to connect with relatives of:

  1. Edward Forde and Margaret Kelly (born ca. 1800).  Daughters were Anna/Mary (born 1832) and Susan (born 1839), who were orphaned at a young age, and lived in or near Castlebar, but were rumored to have spent time in Belfast as well.  Daughters emigrated to the US ca. 1850, living first in the Windsor Locks, Connecticut area, where Susan remained and married Hugh Alcorn.  Anna/Mary (my great-grandmother) moved on to Ohio, where she married William John Patterson of Coleraine, Antrim in Northern Ireland.**
  2. Joseph Patterson (born 1805) and Elizabeth McVicker (born ca. 1800).  Lived at one time in Coleraine, emigrated to the US ca. 1852, settling in Ohio.  Nine children, all born in Ireland, also emigrated to the US. Presbyterian faith.

** See posted photo of William John and Anna/Mary Forde Patterson, with their nine adult children.

Thank you!
