Dear Joe,

Do you have any information about where the name Teggart originated. My
Teggarts lived in Belfast and were Church of Ireland. Any other Teggarts
I have met (and there are not many) are Roman Catholic--one family from
County Armagh.

I do know that the orginal name met "son of a priest" in Gaelic but have
also been told it is Scottish AND maybe a scosh English???

Any information would be very interesting.

Thank you....Sherry Donaldson
