      LDS FGR [AFN:1B84-ML3] Indicates name as Denis MACCARTEE. [LDK]

      Wayne Greene "McCarty Family of Virginia" indicates Dennis McCarty was born at Cork County, Ireland. Dennis left a WILL on 4 Apr 1694 at Richmond County, Virginia. [LDK]

      Lineage ; name also written "Denis Maccartee".
      Perhaps born in Cork Co, Ireland, or abt 1652 south of Dublin,Ireland; Dennis believed to be the 1st of the name in the colony of VA; in Norfolk Co, VA in 1675; resident of Rappahannock Co, VA at one time; acquired considerable landed estate, including in 1675 a grant of 250 acres on the east shoreof Lynn Haven, Lower Norfolk, and 250 acres in Northumberland Co, VA on a branch of the Wicomico R., 25 Sep 1691, which divided said land from James Pope's; he and son Daniel were among the 1st prosecuting attorneys in VA; estate probated 4 Apr1694 in Richmond Co, VA.
      McCartys were supposedly close to King Charles II, which would help explain Dennis' status as a gentleman and a large landowner(DMVD). Text: p.290 Text: pp.84A-87
