Greetings to all who are researching the McOrmond family name and connections to it. The Australian McOrmond family originated from Ireland when William McOrmond arrived here in 1850 with wife Mary and children. He settled in Campbell Town with his family.
Margaret McOrmond married Joseph Oakley. John McOrmond married Sophia Neighbour. Mary Ann McOrmond married George Ashman. William McOrmond married Violetta Thorpe.
I am the ggg grand-daughter of William McOrmond. My line is:
William and Mary had John.John married Sophia and their eldest son was William John. His first "wife" was Hannah Gatty and had 2 children. His second "wife" was Henrietta Hills and had 2 children (one was Robert Henry Edward, my grandfather). His third "wife" was Katie Davis and they had 6 (or 7) children - still researching.
I have contacts and family lines on most of the connections and look forward to filling in the gaps.
The McOrmond families can be located in America, Canada Ireland and Scotland.
Leanne Fraser (but always a McOrmond).
