Hi, Larry! I just stumbled upon this very old post; I hope you'll get the message.
There is a Patrick Carrigan who died on October 15, 1756 in Lancaster Co. I'm
wondering if there aren't a couple of "typos" in your information, which
seems suspiciously similar to mine. This Patrick m. Margaret Douglas in 1747, and had 3
small children at the time of his death. He was on the vestry of St. John's Pequea
Episcopal Church, and paid rent for a pew (indicating that he had substantial means). He
left a sizable estate, and although one reference says that he appointed an executor (John
Wilson), I have not found a will (the index to the will book shows his death with the
year, but no page number for a will). Incidentally, his widow married Mr. Wilson, the
executor, and they had a bunch of children. :) I'm looking for more information on
Patrick, because he may tie to my Sarah Carrigan m. Jerman / German Davis 2 Nov 1759 in
New Castle, DE. Hope that helps with your Patrick,!
and if anyone can tie in my Sarah, let me know!
