Hi. Some of my family from Ballylongford settled in New Jersey (Hackensack and Jersey City). One of them was Nora Carmody who was a housekeeper for the Corbetts. The Corbetts are related to us as Honorah Corbett married my great great grandfather, Cornelius Carmody. My father's aunt Kitty Carmody settled in New York and married a Maloney. Her last known address was in the Bronx but I don't even think she is alive any longer. Many of our Carmody line first settled in Canada, in the Northern part of Ontario (Pembroke mostly). My grandfather was brought over to Canada by those Carmody's and he came to Detroit in the 1920s, which is where we are mostly located now. My oldest brother, Mike, is in Webster New York. Also, in New Jersey were the Guthries, who were in-laws of my grandmother, Mary Ellen O'Hagan. Timothy Guthrie sponsored my grandmother's trip to the USA, by way of Ellis Island. She first landed in Hackensack, and then moved to Detroit where she met and married my grandfather. I don't know if any of this is helpful, but maybe you'll see a connection somewhere in there.

Is Lawrence (Larry) part of your family? Of course the name Carmody and the name Patrick are so common among the Irish! There's a lot of Carmodys in Philly and beyond. So I may have the wrong family, but I thought I'd give it a try! Any feedback is greatly appreciated, even if your write back ("I have no clue what you are talking about!") thanks in advance :) and if you have concerns and questions, feel free to ask.
