Descendants of James McLaughlin of Rowan County, NC

Descendants of
James MCLAUGHLIN
Rowan County, North Carolina

As this is a work in progress, any new information is always welcome.

While some of the McLaughlin Family researchers thought that Hazelette McLaughlin came from Ireland, there is strong evidence that his McLaughlin ancestors lived in Bucks County, Pennsylvania before they moved to Rowan County, North Carolina. Hazelette and his brothers, except for Samuel, as well as one of his sisters moved to the Wine Hill area of Randolph Co, Illinois where they were successful farmers and businessmen. A huge thank you to John Karriker who has done quite a bit of research on this family for one of his friends.

The border for this page is the dress tartan for the Lachlan clan of which the McLaughlin family is a part.
