I am William Mcdermott and Catherine Payton's great grandson. I grew up in their homestead at Lot 2, East Oxford Road in the Gore of Downie. My mother was Irma Catherine Mcdermott - Brenner, daughter of Thomas Mcdermott who was
William Mcdermott and Catherine Payton's youngest son.

I'm also doing research on the Mc Dermott family.My great,great grandfather was Terence Mc Dermott.The Mc Dermott,Herron,and Walsh families are all connected to Stratford,Ontario.They all immigrated to Iowa in about 1865.Terence was married in Stratford,Ontario in 1850.The Henneberry family is also mentioned.Their parents came from Ireland.The Herron family Richard Herron and Mary Payton are also mentioned. ANY info. you have on the Mc Dermott family would be greatly appreciated.Reply to:"thewalrusclub@gmail.com"
