Hi Sally
I know this is a bit late in the day but at the time I was posting messages two years ago, I was not notified when someone answered a posting.I have just found some new information on my Jeremiah and went into this forum for the first time in two years (I have been busy with other family lines!!!) and saw your message!
So sorry about that!I think the Lilyat I was looking for must have contacted me by not using this forum.
Anyway, my Jeremiah Fitzpatrick was born about 1811 in Ireland - he lived in the Miramichi in New Brunswick, Canada so I don't think our Jeremiah's are one and the same - Jeremiah was a very popular name in the late 18th century!!!
Did you know that the Gaelic form of Jeremiah was Diarmuid (or something like that) and its pronunciation (in Gaelic) let to the nickname Darby!!!!I saw this name as an actual name in the baptismal records of some children in Kilkenny! So, again, sorry for not getting back to you - hope you found your Jeremiah.All the best, Carole
