Former John & Ellen McDevitt farm on Morse Hill Road in South Dorset, on the southern flank of Green Peak (Mt. Aeolus).   John McDevitt emmigrated, along with much of his extended family, from Ardstraw Parish, County Tyrone, Ireland, in the late 1800's to work in the quarries.

I live in Connecticut but our family still has property in Dorset, so I have been able to do some onsite research at the Town Clerk's office, cemeteries and the Dorset Historical Society.   I hope this website helps people doing family research who live too far away to do their research in person. 

It is in no way complete nor is it meant to be! To share info please make a post on the bulletin board.  Or, if you have a large piece of info (a tree or narrative) that you think might be good posted on my Family Trees page, or if you have information directly related to the big McDevitt tree that I'm maintaining, email me (Teresa Gallagher) at (<-- that's an unclickable graphic so that the spam bots won't pick up my email address).
