There are probably more Cruzan Latimers in the states

I am looking for information on the Latimer's who lived on St.Croix from 1840's to present. William Latimer born in Ireland emigrated to St. Croix and married Mary McDermott, daughter of James McDermott

Wm. Latimer was a godfather for Walter Smothergill, my grandfather's brother, at St. John's Anglican Church, Christiansted on May 9, 1897. He also was a judge at the Easter Monday races on St. Croix in 1904.
The Smothergills were from County Cavan, Ireland. Do you know whether Wm. Latimer also might have been from there? About a dozen men have been identified who went to the Danish West Indies from County Cavan. I'll put the URL for a web site about this at the end.

MY GRANDFATHER IS OTTO LATIMER SR. AND MY DAD IS OTTO LATIMER JR. WHO NOW RESIDES IN FLORIDA. I ALSO RESIDE IN FLORIDA AND WOULD LOVE TO LINK UP WITH FAMILY MEMBERS. THANKS

Trudy, I am searching for descendants of George Ewing Latimer, born in IN 1829, son of Elisha and Jane Ewing Latimer; son, John Wilbur. George moved from IN to MS with his parents in 1840-45, but am not sure when he or his family moved to FL. If any of this sounds familiar or matches, I have info on other family of Elisha and Jane Latimer. Need info on George Ewing Latimer and his descendants. Thanks. Kay

The 1911 Census of the Danish West Indies shows a family at Estate Rattan headed by Wm Lattimer. An Episcopalian born in Ireland, Lattimer was 56 years old at the time, a widower, and had arrived in the DWI in1878. Children were George age 19, William age 9, Hulda age 8, and James age 6.
An Episcopalian from Ireland suggests Scotch-Irish ancestry. Anyone know where in Ireland he or other Lattimers on St. Croix were from?

The spelling of the name in the above posting should be LATIMER. Sorry.

The 1901 census of St. Croix shows a Wm Latimer, age 45, born in Ireland, came to DWI in 1878. His wife was Mary Elizabeth McDermott, age 30, are their children were children George, age 9; Daisy Agatha, age 6; and Isabella, age 1.

William Latimer b. 1855 and his brother Thomas b. 1857 both went to St Croix. They were sons of James Latimer and Frances Anne Magee Fermanagh, Ireland. James was the brother of my g-g-grandfather Robert Latimer.
