For the past nine years, I have been posting information on Thomas Carroll, born 1870 in County Roscommon, immigrated to the US in the 1890s, last known in Ozone Park in 1938, looking for descendants. Two weeks ago, through the kindness of someone who read one of my messages somewhere, and the NYC Fire Department, I have found them!!! Just want to encourage all of you who hit dead ends, don't give up. Persistence pays........ Doris Sheehan
