My cousin Ed and I think that your Ellen is OUR Ellen. Westport. County Mayo. Ireland.
Your research seems consistent with what our Great-Aunt Kate King compiled before 1960. Original documentation is lacking -- we all just had a copy of the family tree, handwritten by Kate. And most of us kept only the part that was about OUR immediate ancestor. (Ed and I are first cousins, once removed, and only met for the first time in 2001, at my Dad's funeral).
Sigh.
We will gladly exchange information -- I have 19 first cousins! We all married -- most of us have children -- some of us older ones grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Here are my (sketchy) notes about the Ellen King/John McDermott connection. I just found your site tonight -- I'll write to cousin Ed and tell him tomorrow -- along with the other info I winnowed out of the LDS site. I've been having a little break from genealogy since my husband died -- and I'm just catching up!
Notes:
8/2003 -- From McDermott families Irish researcher, via Ed O'Malley : According to the marriage record, Ellen's address is given as MONEMORE, and her father's name was PHILIP (note the ONE L).
********
From Ed O'Malley: April 2002: I'm in contact with a Joan and Mick McDermott whose Great Grandmother was Ellen King who married John McDermott in Westport, Ireland and moved to Iowa in about 1864. They just came back from Ireland searching for Ellen's Parents or siblings.
John A. and Ellen McDermott -- John A. McDermot, son of Alex and nora McGovern McDermott, was born in 1834, Westport, Co, Mayo, Ireland. He married Ellen King, born August 16, 1837, Co. Cork, Ireland. John and Ellen came to America (Clinton, Iowa) in 1864. In 1886 the family moved to Ida County, Logan Township, where they farmed a half-section of land. Their children included: Michale F., Peter J., Thomas J., Ellen M. (Mrs. Tom Flanagan), and Alice C. (Mrs. Dan Murphy). Ellen died in 1923, John in 1924, and are buried in the Ida Grove Catholic Cemetery.

In 1774, Lord Dunmore dissolved the House of Burgesses, but delegates met together secretly. They established the First Continental Congress. In 1775, the Second Continental Congress met in Richmond. Virginia’s George Washington was chosen as head of the Continental Army. The following year Virginia adopted its first constitution.

| Biography* | | In 1976 Herman Charles Vollmer wrote the following about his grandfather Charles J. Knopp: Excellent dresser - nothing but the best. Had to have ryebread with the seeds in it. In business for himself as a cigar maker. Maybe he was not too successful (I really don't know) but he spent many years until he died as a Superintendent of Offindinger's Cigar factory aat 9th St. south of F St., N. W. on the west side (in Washington, D.C.) I was there several times when I was about eight years or so old. He had a slight stroke, lived and then maybe another stroke years later that resulted in his death while living at 1604 33rd St., N.W. Georgetown, D.C. He was sixty eight years old. The 1600 block is at this writing (Sept. 1976) the 1500 block. I was old enough to drive when he was living. I remember taking him for rides in 1922 Chevrolet auto touring car. He was not much for hammer and nails as I remember. My father did most of that for him. He liked me and my cousin Everett Littleton who lived in same house above. Took us on trips by train to Chesapeake Beach and hiking out where Georgetown Hospital now is picking blackberies. I gave Betsy his gold watch and fob. People liked to ask him the time and he always reported down to the second. We also went fishing at Benedict and other places in southern Maryland. Stayed overnight. I know he was once bitten by a toad fish and his hand swelled up and must have been very painful. We call him Pop Pop. His wife Mary A. must have been an Ogle. We call her Mom Mom. Hobbies: Baseball, Prize Fighting, Fishing. |
