The following two picture's are taken 1st of the Church of Ireland, Tamlacht O'Crilly, Co. Derry,and 2nd of the Patton Family
Bible, June 1999 while I was visiting the old Patton home-site. James Patton was born in the North of Ireland, County
of Derry and Parish of Tamlacht, on the 13th day of February, A. D. 1756, of poor, but respectable parentage. His father was
a Farmer by occupation; he died when James was fifteen years of age. For three years before his death, he was in bad health,
and was not able to be of any use to himself or his family. After the death of his father, James continued to reside with
his mother, and assisted her in supporting the family until he was in the twenty-eighth year of his age, during which time
he learned the Weaver's trade, and worked at it for about five years: it was of great service to James afterwards, when he
commenced tore-keeping, as it enabled him to judge correctly of the different kinds of common cloth.
