Thomas Dergin and his wife Elizabeth first appear at Lark Harbour,Bay of Islands, Newfoundland, Canada circa 1840.  At that time the area was called the French Shore and it was a wilderness, bereft of churches, schools, and the vestiges of civilization.  Thomas died in the 1840s and his widow Elizabeth remarried to a Frenchman, Prosper Companion.

  Thomas and Elizabeth Dergin/Derrigun/Dargin/Darrigan had a least
three children:

1) Mary, born circa 1814
             married Richard Wheeler

2) Maurice, born ?
            died 1880, Frenchman's Cove
             married and had a large family

3) Thomas,  born 20 February 1827
             died 1 May 1846
All of the Darrigans on the West Coast of Newfoundland are descended from Maurice Darrigan.  He served as the area school teacher so he had received an education prior to immigrating with his parents to the Bay of Islands.
