The History) of the Patterson Family 
 
 THE descendants of John Pat- 
 terson to the sixth generation 
 celebrated, onWednesday, Sep- 
 tember 23, 1908, at the home 
 of J. C. and G. S. Patterson 
 of Pattersonville, Carroll coun- 
 ty, Ohio, the one-hundredth anniversary 
 of his coming from Ireland to the United 
 States. There are about two hundred 
 and sixty living descendants, and about 
 one hundred and forty were present to 
 participate in this most pleasant reunion. 
 The forenoon was spent in a general 
 handshaking and becoming better ac- 
 quainted with those from a distance, of 
 whom there was quite a large number. 
 After a bountiful dinner, which was 
 enjoyed by all, the meeting was called 
 to order by R. A. Patterson, acting as 
 temporary chairman. Speeches were 
 delivered by Revs. Patterson of West 
 Virginia, Morledge of Cumberland, Ward 
 of Minerva, Harris of Mechanicstown 
 and Spooner of Augusta, Ohio. A short 
 history of the family was read which 
 was interesting. A part of it follows: 
 John and Mary Patterson and their 
 three children of the County Donegal, 
 Ireland, started for America some time 
 in June, 1808. In calm weather sailing 
 ships could make the trip in forty days. 
 The Pattersons met with storms and 
 were lost at sea, prolonging their voy- 
 age to ninety days. They landed at New 
 York in September, and from there went 
 to Allegheny county, Pa., taking up a 
 quarter section of land where Allegheny

 City now stands. Staying there about 
 two years they went to a farm in Wash- 
 ington county, same state, where they 
 lived eight or nine years. While on this 
 farm their youngest daughter Rebecca 
 was born and their eldest daughter Jane 
 was married to William Cassidy. In the 
 spring of 1819 John Patterson entered a 
 farm in Harrison township, Carroll-co., 
 Ohio, then Stark-co. , drove a stake and 
 returned to his home in Pennsylvania. 
 He then took his two sons— Robert, aged 
 18, and John, aged 16— across the river 
 to Steubenville, and from there they 
 went alone on foot to Centerville, now 
 Carrollton. From the inn where their 
 father had arranged for their lodging 
 and board they followed a deer path and 
 stopped at the deer lick, which marked 
 the place of their future home. In one 
 week's time, with the use of two axes 
 and an augur, they built a cabin and 
 straightway went to clearing the land. 
 Then in the fall of 1819 John and Mary 
 Patterson, and the others of the family, 
 joined the two sons in their new home. 
 They built a log cabin on the east side 
 of the farm. 
 
 John Patterson died September 25, 
 1827. On March 8, 1833, John and Rob- 
 ert Patterson entered into an agreement 
 that at their mother's death John Pat- 
 terson would give Robert Patterson a 
 deed for his share of the farm, the east 
 half, and should receive from Robert 
 Patterson as consideration money $400. 
 This is the third Article of Agreement 
 
^he History of The Patterson Family 
 
 recorded in Carroll-co. records. Their 
 mother died in 1852 and this agreement 
 was made good on August 9, 1854, by 
 John giving Robert a deed for 80 acres 
 of the east side of the farm and receiv- 
 ing the $400. Robert Patterson lived on 
 this farm the remainder of his life and 
 left it to his second wife and three sons. 
 The farm was sold out of the Patterson 
 name in 1892..
