I hold a marriage cert for my great-grandfather, William Carroll, whose parents are listed as John Carroll born in Co Cork 1813 and spouse/mother Elizabeth Mulholland. John is listed as deceased at the time of William's marriage, but may have gone to Australia? There are , also, the possibility he married twice baring two sons, both named William as told by my grandother.

Hi
Thank you for your message.
Some sites that may be of assistance to you are:
British parliamentary papers on Ireland can be found at: http://eppi.dippam.ac.uk/documents/9824/eppi_pages/215093
The National Archives of Ireland http://www.nationalarchives.ie/genealogy1/genealogy-records/introduction/
The National Library of Ireland http://www.nli.ie/en/family-history-introduction.aspx
The National Archives UK ? genealogy search: http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/records/looking-for-person/
Irish Newspaper Archives: http://www.irishnewsarchive.com/
If you believe John may have gone to Australia - Have you checked the immigration records in Australia? Generally, more information was given at the port of arrival rather than the port of departure. The University of Woolongong has produced, on microfiche, a complete index and transcript of all information concerning immigrants of Irish origin recorded on ships' passenger lists between 1848 and 1867 for New South Wales. These are useful for finding out an exact place of origin as well as parents' names. The Public Record Office of Victoria has good online databases of settlers at www.prov.vic.gov.au Otherwise, other records may be found in the Colonial Office Papers of the UK National Archives, class reference CO 201. This class contains a wide variety of records, including petitions for assisted passages, emigrants' lists, records of emigrants on board ship, petitions from settlers for financial assistance and much more.
Best of luck with your search.
Kind regards,
