The last paternal line I have is Teague Riggin II who's father is said to be Teague O'Dowda Reagh. Riggin later turned into Riggens, but the only hits I'm getting from Reagh is sending me to MacCarthy. Was there a descendant who could have came over in the early/middle 1600s and changed their last name to Riggin?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973911285850148002.post-59041237953399438582014-02-12T23:00:55.664+00:002014-02-12T23:00:55.664+00:00It does seem that Sarah's true name is McLarty...It does seem that Sarah's true name is McLarty.

Brown b. 1790 Scotlan...I have a ggg gf Archibald M. Brown b. 1790 Scotland who married Sarah McCarthy. We think they came to NC by way of Charleston abt. 1800. They migrated & settled near Shorter, Macon Co. Al abt. 1836. He was a Methodist Preacher and 1830- 1836 they lived near present day Monroe,NC not far from a family named McLarty who came from Kintyre Scotland. A male McLarty Will from that area mentions his daughter Sallie McLarty who married Archibald Brown. (other McLarty children married into surnames in Archibald Brown's nabe) Could McLarty have morphed into McCarthy or vice versa? Supposedly Sarah McCarthy was born in Scotland. Any help on these surnames appreciated.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6973911285850148002.post-53996344665102339912013-10-21T16:19:25.546+01:002013-10-21T16:19:25.546+01:00I would like to correspond with other P314.2+ peop...I would like to correspond with other P314.2+ people to compare family names to see if we can assist each other in finding information on ancestors. <br /> I go back to my GGGrandfather Michael McCarthy bc1794 married Catherine Regan (O'Regan) we thin 1824 Bandon. They Baptize son Thomas ( went by John ) 1828 Bathurst, NB, Canada Their children William 1830, Michael 1833, Mary 1837, Andrew 1841, Joseph James 1843. Michael then marries Catherine Cronin 1844, & they have sons Patrick 1845, Florence Francis ( my GGrandfather )1847, & Thomas 1850. Michael dies Jan. 30 1860 it says at 65. Michael's children name their sons that would be named after their father James, & Michael James, so we wonder if Michael's name might have actually been James.<br /> I would like to see other P314.2+ members information, so that I can compare naming sequences for possible family connections. <br /> wmccarthy@metrocast.netAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
