	* [[User:annlynn9]] (Loretta Lynn) has identified that it is possible, though unproven, that Hugh Linn was descended from the Lords of Lynn, who owned the Barony of Lynn in Dalry, Ayrshire, Scotland. His lineal ancestor could have been either David or [[John Linn (1720)]] (wife: [[Jane Patterson (1723)]]), both of whom were 1616 Scots settlers in County Tyrone, Ulster, Ireland.		* [[User:annlynn9]] (Loretta Lynn) has identified that it is possible, though unproven, that Hugh Linn was descended from the Lords of Lynn, who owned the Barony of Lynn in Dalry, Ayrshire, Scotland.

	** Note from [[User:annlynn9]]: I also believe that Hugh may have been born in County Tyrone, in part because Dr. Linn related that the Widneys (Sarah Widney being Hugh's wife) owned an estate in County Tyrone. Assuming Dr. Linn's account to be true, it does seem more likely that Hugh came from County Tyrone and that he and Sarah only settled near Newry after marrying. On the other hand, recent research has failed to turn up any evidence whatsoever of the Widneys ever having a presence in Tyrone. To the contrary, they are found predominantly in County Monaghan but also in Armagh, Down, Antrim, and even Cavan - but never in Tyrone. See: [https://www.house-of-lynn.com/Widney_Woodney_Udny_of_Ireland.html]. However, if the 1766 religious return linked below is our Hugh Linn, that would place him in County Tyrone 11 years prior to his marriage to Sarah Widney.		** Note from [[User:annlynn9]]: I also believe that Hugh may have been born in County Tyrone, in part because Dr. Linn related that the Widneys (Sarah Widney being Hugh's wife) owned an estate in County Tyrone.

Specifically, there are deeds in which the Widneys owned the County Monaghan townland of Killymurry beginning at least as early as 1724 (unfortunately, no Irish deeds prior to 1708 have survived) until 1784, when it was sold by Hugh's brother-in-law James Widney - the very year James left for America. At the same time, other deeds place the ''Linn'' family in County Tyrone, in the townland of Dunmacmay, Aghaloo Parish at least as early as 1715. Dunmacmay is just 2 miles from Killymurry. These deeds together strongly suggest that the 1766 Hugh Lynn in Aghaloo Parish is the father of Hugh Linn.

Assuming Dr. Linn's account to be true, it does seem more likely that Hugh came from County Tyrone and that he and Sarah only settled near Newry after marrying. On the other hand, recent research has failed to turn up any evidence whatsoever of the Widneys ever having a presence in Tyrone. To the contrary, they are found predominantly in County Monaghan but also in Armagh, Down, Antrim, and even Cavan - but never in Tyrone. See: [http://scotlandinmay.house-of-lynn.com/WidneyWoodneyUdneyIreland.html In Search of Colonel Widney And the Family in Ireland Through the End of the Eighteenth Century]. However, if the 1766 religious return linked below is our Hugh Linn, that would place him in County Tyrone 11 years prior to his marriage to Sarah Widney.		** Note from [[User:annlynn9]]: I also believe that Hugh may have been born in County Tyrone, in part because Dr. Linn related that the Widneys (Sarah Widney being Hugh's wife) owned an estate in County Tyrone.

	** Note from [[User:annlynn9]]: John Linn and Jane Patterson emigrated to Virginia some years before our Hugh Linn was born in Ireland, and Hugh had no connection whatsoever to Virginia but lived continuously in Concord, Pennsylvania from his immigration till his death.		** Note from [[User:annlynn9]]: John Linn and Jane Patterson emigrated to Virginia some years before our Hugh Linn was born in Ireland, and Hugh had no connection whatsoever to Virginia but lived continuously in Concord, Pennsylvania from his immigration till his death.
			** New Evidence (2 May 2019) from [[User:annlynn9]] : The relatively recent online publication of original 18th-century Irish deeds place the Widney family ''not'' in County Tyrone but in neighboring County Monaghan. At the same time, certain deeds place the ''Linn'' family in County Tyrone, in the townland of Dunmacmay, Aghaloo Parish. Dunmacmay is just 2 miles from Killymurry, the County Monaghan townland owned by the Widneys. These deeds strongly suggest that the 1766 Hugh Lynn in Aghaloo Parish is the father of Hugh Linn. For an in-depth analysis of Dr. Linn's account of Hugh's origins in light of these deeds and other documents, along with Y-DNA information for two direct male descendants, see ...
