Notes

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Mccausland-58

John McCausland and his sons are reputed to have been born in Glenduglas, Scotland. Presumably, Patrick remained in Scotland and only John and Andrew went to Ireland. Apparently nothing further is known of John or whether John and Andrew had any other brothers or sisters in Ireland. Research to date indicates that all Irish McCauslands have been descended from the first Andrew McCausland. Burke's does not indicate if Andrew had any other issue than Alexander, but does indicate that Alexander had three daughters in addition to his two sons, Oliver and Andrew. Burke's says that Col. Robert McCausland's grandfather was Andrew, but does not identify the father. It is possible that Alexander is Col. Robert's father, but this has not been confirmed. The McCauslands settled initially in County Tyrone and have remained, primarily through Oliver's line, in that county to this day. Col. Robert McCausland inherited property from William Conolly in County Derry and this was the start of a separate "County Derry Line.
