• Notes

  John DINSMOOR, b. abt 1650 Scotland, left Scotland about 1667 for Ballywattick NI. He was the second son who didn't like the idea of paying homage and respect to his elder brother. At the age of 17, when his father required him "to hold the off stirrup of his elder brother's saddle, when he mounted his horse", he took off for Ulster, with only the clothes on his back and a cane. "This man lived until he was 99 years of age. He was fifty years married, and twenty nine years a widower, which ended his life, much respected by all who were acquainted with him, for his piety, morals, and good sense." Grandson Robert Dinsmore in letter to his cousin in 1794.
