I am not sure I can tell much about Mary McSherry. Her Parents were Patrick McSherry and Catherine Gartland. I can tell you a little more about Patrick. He supposedly came from Armagh, Ireland. He kept a tavern and a store near Littlestown, Pa. Now in Adams Co. then in York Co. He owned a great deal of property in both Pa. and Maryland. Patrick, a Catholic and his partner, Christian Hoover, a Mennonite laid out McSherrystown, also in Adams Co about five miles from Littlestown.Patrick never lived in McSherrystown. Patrick was a supporter of the American Revolution. He died July 13, 1795. He was originally buried at Conewago Chapel but his body was later removed to St. Aloysious Cemetery, Littlestown, and interred in the McSherry plot. We have accumulated quite a bit of material on the McSherry family. You may contact us directly at [email protected].
