Correspondence added January 30, 2007, passenger 42 Patterson

William John Patterson was born in 1832 in the region of Coleraine, 
Londonderry in what is now Northern Ireland.  

I have attached a photo taken of him, flanked by two of his adult 
children and three grandchildren in Ohio (circa 1915).  

For summary information on him after emigration, below is an excerpt 
from "Centennial Portrait and Biographical Record of The City of 
Dayton and of Montgomery County, Ohio, Containing Biographical 
Sketches of Prominent and Representative Citizens Together With The 
Biographies and Portraits of the Presidents of the United States and 
Biographies of the Governors of Ohio", Edited by Frank Conover, of 
Dayton, Ohio  A. W. BOWEN & CO., 1897.

Prof. Patterson received his elementary education at Coleraine, 
Londonderry, and in 1851 came to America, following a brother, 
Joseph, who had preceded him by two years. In 1854 he was followed 
by his parents, Joseph and Elizabeth (McVicker) Patterson, who first 
located in Dayton, but later removed to Oxford, where both parents 
passed the remainder of their days. The family comprised seven children, 
viz:  Joseph, now the owner of a 600-acre farm in Coffee county, Tenn.; 
William J.; Martha, wife of Henry Halteman, a farmer of Preble county, 
Ohio; Eliza, widow of John Dugan, and now a resident of Rockwood, Tenn., 
her husband having been killed in a railroad accident; Annie, wife of 
Isaiah Douglass, a farmer of Oxford, Ohio; Mrs. Sarah Lindsay, of 
Nebraska; and Margaret, wife of Edward Weingardner, of First street, 
Dayton.

Prof. Patterson has been a resident of Dayton since 1851, when the 
city contained a population of but 16,000, with no buildings of any 
pretentions to architectural beauty or construction, or of any 
considerable monetary value; in fact, the majority of them were either 
log or frame, with an occasional brick structure at the more populous 
or business points of the town. The most speedy means of communication 
and travel between Dayton and Cincinnati was by canal packet in his 
early residence here, and he was a witness to the laying of the first 
railway track to enter the city, that of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & 
Dayton road. As to the other great changes which have taken place 
during the interval of forty-five years, only those who survive from 
that early day can fully realize their magnitude.

On first locating in Dayton, Prof. Patterson attended school in 
Carrollton for two years and then began teaching. The first teachers' 
examination was held in the old academy which stood on the site of 
the present Central school building of Dayton, and which was the old 
Central high school site; the examiners were James Campbell and John 
Hall, both for many years afterward employed as teachers in the same 
high school. Prof. Patterson began his work as a tutor in a typical 
log school-house on the farm of Rev. Mr. Heineker, near Miamisburg, 
and has the unusual record of having been a school-teacher in the 
district and village schools of Montgomery county for over forty years. 
In 1890 he was elected principal of the Thirteenth public school district 
of Dayton, in which he served most effectively for two years and a half, 
and was then appointed to a similar position in the Seventh district, 
which he has since filled with ability.

The marriage of Prof. Patterson took place March 18, 1855, to Miss Anna 
Ford, who was born in Castlebar, Ireland, in 1833, and came to America 
an orphan child. This marriage has resulted in the birth of nine children, 
of whom Joseph Edward is a prosperous farmer, living near Dayton; Emma is 
the wife of Frank Wogaman and resides in the city; William F. is in the 
employ of the American Express company; John Charles is an attorney at 
law and a prominent member of the Dayton bar; Rev. James Albert is a 
talented minister of the Presbyterian church at Fostoria, Ohio; Martha 
is married to William Rice, general agent at Dayton for the Jackson Coal 
Company; Dr. Clifton L. is a successful member of the medical fraternity; 
Mrs. Lizzie Johnson, whose husband is bookkeeper for the Buckeye Iron & 
Brass works, and Robert C., a student in the Cincinnati Law school. The 
family are all members of the First Reformed church of Dayton, having 
been reared in the Scotch Presbyterian faith.

Prof. Patterson has been always active in church and Sunday-school work; 
in politics he has invariably sided with the democratic party, although 
he has never been a partisan for personal ends. As an office-holder, he 
has been content to serve seven years as a member of the board of county 
examiners of teachers — an office for which he is peculiarly well 
qualified — and as a patriot, he served 100 days in the One Hundred 
and Thirty-second Ohio volunteer infantry during the late Rebellion.

His youngest son, Robert C. Patterson, became a judge in Dayton, 
eventually moving to Washington, DC with his three children, of 
whom my father, John Ford Patterson, was the youngest.  I was born 
in Washington and am living here still.

Thank you for making this information available on-line.  I’d be interested 
in learning of any other projects of a similar type being conducted with 
regard to Irish immigrants of this period.

Sincerely,
Amy Patterson
