Note: Many sources erroneously conflate George Pomeroy/Pumery/Pumroy of Pennsylvania with George Holmes-Pomeroy of Pallas, County Cork, Ireland. DNA testing has proven that George Pomeroy's descendants have a Pomeroy y-DNA, not Holmes y-DNA, so George Pomeroy cannot be a Holmes-Pomeroy. Also, George Holmes-Pomeroy of Pallas, County Cork, died young in Ireland and never came to America.
