Dear Sharon Had a quick look at some passenger lists I have in a reference book. Only William CARROLL I could find was on the ship INFANTRY from Liverpool to New York 29 July 1850.

Do you want the passenger lists? Sound methodology of research is to work back in time. Thus, the arrival (which has better records anyway) is the place to look. Because passenger lists are arranged by port and then chronologically, it's important to know when and where your ancestor arrived. This information can usually be found on Naturalization Records after 1906. The U.S. Federal Census (see National Archives) for 1900, 1910 and 1920 lists the year of immigration, and 1920 lists the year of Naturalization. National Archives staff in Washington. DC, will search the immigration passenger lists up to 1954 if there is an index and if an inquirer can give the full names and ages of the passenger and of accompanying passengers, the port of entry, the vessel, and exact date of arrival. Philadelphia Index starts in 1800, Baltimore, Boston etc. in 1820. New York is indexed for 1820-1847 and after 1897. If the passenger list is not indexed you must supply either the exact date of arrival or the name of the ship on which the person arrived in addition to the facts listed above. Requests for searches should be made on NATF Form 81, Order for Copies of Ship Passenger Arrival Records. You can obtain the NATF Form 81 by providing your name and mailing address [email protected] Be sure to specify "Form 81" and the number of forms you need. The fee is $10.00, payable only when the requested records are found. If the records cannot be found, no payment is required. You can do-it-yourself at the local Family History Centers. The FHL has acquired 99% of National Archives passenger records. There are Family History Centers scattered throughout the world, located in the LDS meeting-houses. The FHCs are generally listed in the local phonebook under Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints with its own phone number. In some communities, Family Search is in the local public library. No charge is made for using the resources at the local FHC except for a rental fee for microfilm from the Family History Library in Salt Lake. No proselytizing is allowed in the FHC.

This information is available at the NARA web site at: http://www.nara.gov/publications/microfilm/immigrant/rg85.html - for years after ca1891 Not all persons who entered the United States appear on the available passenger lists. Some lists were lost. Some ship captains probably did not record all passengers on the lists for one reason or another. Indexers do not always spell names correctly, often because the original version of the name was illegible. Since no index is 100% accurate, the only way to be certain whether or not a name is in the actual record is to search the record itself.

I'm fairly new to this, and for right now, I'm just hoping to see messages from other people researching the Carrolls. My information is limited (right now) to family stories. My Great-Grandfather, William Patrick Carroll immigrated from Ireland approx 1840-1850. The story is that his name was originally O'Carroll, but he dropped the O upon entering this country. The story is that he came from County Clare, but from what I've seen, few Carrolls seem to have come from there...they seem to be more in other counties in Ireland. My mother's memories (and she was not young when I heard the story, so she might have mis-remembered things) were that he entered the county in Boston, bringing with him a wife whom he'd met and married on the ship coming over. She wasn't Irish, however, she was French. (Unfortunatly, my mother barely remembered her, except for some handcrafts she'd made. Nor did my mother remember this woman's name). According to a 1905 census, my grandfather (also William Patrick Carroll) was born in PA in 1870, though he died in Elmira, NY. So until I can get his birth certificate, I have way too little to go on.

I'm searching for: 1) Hugh BRADLEY and Rose (BRADLEY) BRADLEY. Family story: A Bradley married a Bradley; they came from different parts of Ireland and met on the ship to America. She was called "the Rose of the boat" because of her beautiful voice. I don't know where they married. They are in Norristown PA by August 1848, when their first child was born. Other Bradleys there came from Ballynascreen, Derry, so I think either Hugh or Rose did too. By 1858 they lived in Phoenixville PA. They died in 1906 and 1907. Hugh's PA death certificate gives parents' names as Eugene (?) Bradley and Sarah Wall. Rose's has no mother's name, but father is William Bradley. DOB for Hugh on death cert. is 15 Aug 1815, probably ten years too early, since the 1850 census gives their ages as 24 and 23, and the 1870 and 1880 censuses agree. DOB for Rose given as 11 Oct 1826, which is consistent. (Information on PA death certificates is unreliable. )Hugh told his grandchildren that someone in his family came to Ireland from France at the time of the Revolution. One of the Wild Geese returning? 2) Patrick CALLAHAN and Margaret (GLANCY) CALLAHAN. Family story: The Callahans came from Cork; landed first in Canada; told of sailing up the St. Lawrence River. I think they left Ireland in 1846 or 1847; daughter's baptismal record says she was born 22 Feb 1846 but not baptized until 6 Sept 1847, in Phoenixville PA. I haven't found them in the 1850 census; in 1860, they list a son William, 18, as born in PA, but I think he was born in Ireland, and if so, he sailed with them. Patrick died 29 March 1887 in Phoenixville, where he'd lived next to his daughter, Mary Moran. Margaret was still alive in Sept. 1887. Mary Ann BRADLEY, daughter of Hugh and Rose, married Hugh CALLAHAN, son of Patrick and Margaret. They are my great-grandparents. Karen Barth

Would anyone have any information regarding ship arrivals TO England in the 1914-1915 period from the USA. I am trying to locate information regrding a trip my Father and Gfather made during that period of time from NYC to England,possibly to visit relatives after my Fathers Mother died. A search for passports for these people have yeilded no information from the US passport office, and I am hoping there is a list of ship arrivals or films of ship arrivals to England durning 1914-1915. Anyone with a clue or answer please contact me at [email protected] Thank you. Pat

Who? Patrick Donald/Daniel Riley What? I know that he was born in 1880. I know that he came to the US in 1898, when he was 18 years old. That he had been in a seminary in Ireland before he came to the US. I also know the when he met my Great-Grandmother in 1918, he had no living family. Where? According to my Great-Aunt, his youngest daughter, he came from County Clare. She doesn't know the town, or who his parents were. When? I know that he married my Great-Grandmother in 1919, in Nebraska. He died April 21, 1929 in Lincoln, Nebraska, while stringing power lines.

Have you ever gotten an email that had a subject line that was totally irrelevant to the message text? Or how about the reply to an email that had been replied to 5 times with no one bothering to cut and paste just the relevant information? Well there is an easy way to fix this problem!!!! Every time you send a mail out, before hitting that send button LOOK at your mail first! Does the subject line pertain to your mail? Will it make an experienced or newbie genealogist interested enough to open your mail? Are you replying to someone else's mail? Have you taken the time to cut out the parts that aren't relevant to your reply? Have you signed your name with your email address at the end of the mail too? This makes it easier for someone to reply to you later, even if you aren't on the list anymore. Personally I search other lists archives and send mail to individuals who have posted even in 1996. Have had a lot of success too! Try this tip, you will be surprised how much you might like it. Laura Schmidt [email protected]

A great many of the tenantry of Mr Kelly, of Castle Kelly, are amongst the number. Galway Independent.

Hello Everyone, Does anyone out there have any info on my Grandmother "Gertrude Catherine Mary Maloy". I'm not sure if it's "Maloy or Malloy". Born in New York on Dec 17, 1908. She married William Van Vorst. I'll assume around 1934 He was born Apr.16, 1913. He was also born in N.Y. Her family lived in Corona Long Island across the street from the World's Fair. Her sister Catherine married a Buckley I believe. They had two children. The girl was named Kathleen I believe. The boy was named Patrick. My second cousins. First cousins to my mother Gertrude(called Trudy). Trudy married George Hodgkinson. They had Four children. Any info would be helpful. Thank You AbbieM.(Gail Hodgkinson) Van Vorst

The major source of Irish topographical maps since 1800 is the Ordnance Survey, which covered all of England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland. Maps were produced from the survey in series of 1 inch, 6 inches, and 25 inches to the mile. Series have been revised and published at different times. Ordnance Survey maps of greater detail (up to 10 feet to the mile) have been produced for most Irish cities. A list of Ordnance Survey district special and tourist maps, 1861-1939 / compiled by Nigel N. James. Found in Family History Library Catalog under: Ireland - Maps - Inventories, registers, catalogs.

Can some kind soul tell me where I can buy detailed maps for Antrim,Londonderry and Tyrone for the period 1700-1760? I need townland ones showing house locations, tenant/owners and cemeteries, if these exist. Please advise the name of maps to order,price, and the name and address of the seller. This info will be very much appreciated.

Larry, Thanks for the info. Turns out his name is on the wall at MAKATI CITY CEMETERY, I have a photo around here somewhere. I haven't checked into anything in Hawaii. Would there be a duplicate listing? Where would I check in Hawaii? Desiree
