My Gilpatricks came from Maine
and the Collins from Massachusetts and ended up in Montana. A lot is
known about James Fergus, Luella Gilpatrick's father. Go to the other
section
for Fergus Family.
I have transcribed a number of things written by my
family. Have a look.
I am not positive about how we connect to the first Gilpatrick family
in Maine, but I am sure we do. Ours is a Samuel Gilpatrick and I have
found his
marriage in a book about Saco in York County, Maine. Unfortunately,
there are several families with Samuels and I am not certain which one
is ours. So if you have information on Gilpatrick family with all the
spelling variations, I would love to hear from you.
New!!! And now the text from the book
by G. T. Ridlon Saco Valley Settlements and
Families, the section on Killpatrick and Gillpatrick. Text with his
genealogy notes on various families.
Work in
Slowed Progress Expanded
I have worked on
Fergus
families from the same area around Glasgow — now expanded to the area
around Edinburgh with the addition of other name variations and
Killpatrick
from the same areas and source.
My main family collection of Gilpatrick genealogy originating in Maine
is here:
I have compiled data from the LDS Scottish Church
Records CD-ROM into families as best I can. Please have a look and let
me know how to add your Fergus or Killpatrick family or correct
what
I have.
You may look here and download the gedcom file for these 4,938 Fergus
& Killpatrick persons--none of them living now.
I had a bit of trouble making it usable. Labeling it a .ged file seems
not to preserve the line returns to keep stuff neat and orderly. When I
save it as a text file when it already was then I can not open it in
Netscape. So I saved it as html and it looks great on the web. I
renamed it .ged instead of .html so I think it might display for
you and give the correct file type. If not rename it to .ged and it
should
work with your genealogy program.
My Fergus and Gilpatrick (Killpatrick) families may have a common
connection.
Christian Pollock is in both groups by marriage. It was easiest do do
all
the searching updating of the first file as one group in the same file.

You will
