Hi Striker11, Nice to have a new member! [TS_welcome] I found a marriage certificate for their daughter Mary Carden and it says that the surname is actually Derrick, very clearly written. Of course that information is as only as good as the informant and the registrar, but I thought it worth mention...

Thanks Billymac,

I will answer you in a PM shortly!

I agree with Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh, and I think his occupation is a thatcher's labourer.

I'm enjoying the posts too

Well done! It's always nice to put some family tree pieces together. It's particularly lively that you got to speak t people who knew her. I've recently come into contact with some long lost cousins who can tell me all about their grandmother, my great great aunt. It makes everything so much more me...

Merry Christmas everyone!!!

Hi all, I've told people around me and they don't understand the excitement of being able to go back another generation, so I'm writing it here. It might be small fry for some of you but I've just discovered the name of my 6th great grandfather was Peter Paterson, father of Agnes who was born around...

That's when I was there, in '75 or '76. Mum used to send me out to get one or the other, lol. LOVED them!!! Nothing like them in Australia!

That's exactly what I thought, Trish!

Merry Christmas everyone
