Carroll - Quinlan

Afternoon

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

It may be difficult to learn more as the period of your search is fairly early and some parishes will not have surviving records from that period.

Have you already searched rootsireland or familysearch for any record of the family?

I have researched locally for 30+ years. Recently, joined Ancestry.com but have had little luck in Ireland. I have just recently ventured into rootesireland and family search with limited success. Most of my ancestors hail from Ireland which makes it more frustrating.

Since my last posting, I have found a few records related to the Carroll Family but still am having difficulty in finding elusive birth records. What I have found is the following:

The 22 February 1824 marriage record for Edmund Carroll and Catherine Quinlan at Hospital, Limerick Ireland, Diocese: Cashel and Emly. The record states that his residence was in Effin.

1829 Tithe Applotment Book record indicating - County: Limerick, Parish: Eflin; and Townland: Brickfield

Ship manifest of the Cato. It sailed from Liverpool and arrived in New Orleans, LA on June 25, 1849. On the Ship was Edmund Carroll (45 years), Christine Catherine Carroll (40 years) and children: Patrick (18 years), John (17 years), Micheal (13 years), Mary (8years), and James (7 years).

Looking for any records or information on their birth, baptism, and parents. They were Catholic and likely fled during the potatoe famine.
