Regarding the Joanna O'Carroll I'm speaking of, some information I've read said she may have been married before, but I have found nothing with foundation for that. I did rely on the book Princes of Ireland, Plantion of the O'Carroll family in Maryland (I think that's the name). It is the only reference I have ever found to the daughters of Anthony, son of Daniel and brother of Charles the Emigrant in Baltimore, Maryland. I have found other documentation of real estate transactions between Joanna O'Carroll and her husband Joshua Howard, with a Daniel O'Carroll in Baltimore, Maryland. I have not really done any research of my own on this line, but it is good to find what information is out there. As far as the Mulledy name, that is my father's name and it is very unusual and can be spelled many different way and still be the same family. My g grandfather came over to the US in about 1888 and settled in Rockland County, New York. He lived with an Aunt and Uncle until he married. Now some of the Census's show the Aunt & Uncle (Patrick & Mariah Mulledy had a son who must have moved to the Boston area because his daughter shows as having been born there. My third cousin whom I found still living where our family is from (Ballymahon, Longford County, Ireland) says there are cousins that live in Boston, but I do not know them. I was at somewhat of a disadvantage in knowing much because my father and his family were estranged from the other Mulledy's, but with the little he did know I was able to root them out. I would love to keep in touch. My e-mail is coeescrow@hotmail.com and my full name is Susan Mulledy-DeFrank. Hope to hear from you soon.
