(birth place is a subject of controversy. ive seen it as Ireland, Maryland and South Carolina. I have yet to see valid proof of any of them. therefore Im leaving it as Ireland because that is on the research documentation given to me that started my PURDY family genealogy. If you can find documented proof otherwise please email it to me and ill be happy to review it and makes edits accordingly)
