This is fantastic! I've seen so many familiar names just reading through some of the messages. I even saw the names of a couple of cousins. My niece, Stacey Carter, said that this is addictive; she may be right. Our family settled in Maxton, NC--ther
's a Cottingham Street there. I look forward to learning more about our widespread family. Thanks to all who sent E-Mail messages to my mother at Christmas.

I currently reside in Zion (Utah) and am a recent convert to the Morman faith. I do know that the restored gospel of Jesus Christ has been restored in it's fulness by the prophet Joseph Smith. I am very grateful to know that a resource as full as this e
ists so that one day, when I am ready to take the Priesthood, I will be able to Bless not only my living reletives, but also those who have come before me. Thank you Lord for all that thou haste done for for and for al that thou haste in store for my mor
al existance. Though I continue to struggle with the Word of Wisdom, I know that whith Your love and guidance, I will overcome and go on to live as Thou would have me.

Hey...Well, as you can see, I'm a Cottingham, and I have no idea if these are the Cottinghams that came to Canada too..supposedly my ancestor, whose name i don't even know, came to virginia circa 1635, then fled to Canada...he was part of the imperial loy
lists..that's all I know. Anyone want to help me? I'd appreciate it...
Comments:
My grandfather was J G Cottingham, due to my grandmother being illiterate my father was registered as John George Cottenham. This has remained the family surname since then

I really enjoyed finding this web page and learning some information about my ancestors. I am trying to find if there is any Native American ancestors in our lineage. Thank you, this is great. Gayle

It is a pleasure to come to know of so many other Cottingham's. I can trace my linage back to Peter Cottingham who was born in Bibb Co. AL on May 29 1856, but I have been unable to find out who his parent were. Peter stated that his parents were from So
th Carolina, but that is all the information I have about them. I would love to find my direct connection to Thomas and George. Peter married Theodosia White and had 2(?) children Monte, and Vern. Vern changed his name to Cottingame either for pronunci
tion sake or because of a family fight. I have heard both stories. If anyone has information on Peter or his parents, I would love to hear from you.
Comments:
I am so thrilled that I have found you. I have been tracing Cottinghams for quite some time, and I do have information about Sarah Ann Cottingham , her father being Judge Joshua Cottingham. I do have a picture of her. She married William Irwin, and I w
uld love it if I could find information like this about the Irwins too. I would be happy to share what I have, but I feel it will be a drop in a bucket compared to what I am about to find on this site. Bless you for doing this. Maude Haeger

complete it before becoming ill, he passed away about two months ago; hopefully someone in
the family will complete his book for him. I know it mean't a lot to him, because not a

Comments:
Columbus, OH, (Montgomery County) 1870 Census lists brothers John and Martin Naddy, from
the Kilkenny town of Graiguenamanah, with their families. They immigrated to Baltimore in
1849, John in March on the Chanango, out of New Ross and Martin in May on e John Bell,
also out of New Ross. I descend from their older sister, Margaret Naddy and Mathew Daly
who also sailed on Chenango, and stayed in Maryland. John Naddy's daughter Catherine, b.
in Columbus in about 1858, married Patrick Cottingham there. T e Maryland family had
passed down a record of this marriage. It is confirmed by the 1900 census record that
shows Patrick Cottingham on North 4th St., Columbus. Born Ohio, age 41 (born 3/59) with
wife Catherine, age 38 (born 10/61) and children Charles C (4 92); Emerson J. (6/93);
Catherine (2/96); and Harold (8/98). Listed in the Patrick Cottingham household are also:
Elizabeth H. Naddy, age 25; Marguerite Naddy, age 23, and Charles M. J. Naddy, age 21.
Margaret/Marguerite Naddy is listed with Patrick in 19 0, as is the apparent widow of
Charles M. J. Naddy, with their daughter Margaret. Family history indicates that Patrick
and Catherine's daughter, Catherine Cottingham married Gerard Berry, who was associated
with some boat works in the Columbus area. Whet er this Patrick Cottingham is a descendant
of the colonists or a Irish famine immigrant like the Naddys, I do not know, but this
gives you a few more Ohio family members. Jer German
