After seeing this unusual town name, I immediately searched the internet to find out how the town got its name. According to Ohio History Central, it was named after Peter Patrick, an early resident of the area. I wonder if this was his nickname?
What about your family... did they come from any unusual places?
Do we share common ancestors? I'd love to talk! Please leave a comment or write me at drleeds@sbcglobal.net
That is awesome! I have weird surnames: Dork and McWeeney ;)
