Hi Christine, You mentioned that you are researching CARMODY. Do you have any in Ennis or Ennistymon? I am lookin for a family that adopted a girl named Rosemary.

Mary, I am also researching the CARMODY name. Oral history says they were from Ennis, but have no proof. Ours is a Peter CARMODY who married Bridget FLANAGAN in Ireland and came to the USA circa 1850 with 6 children. No Rosemary though. mcarmody@osage.net

The Subject line says "Family Coat of Arms." I was under the impression that a Coat of Arms was made for an individual, not a "family" and that it is something that cannot be passed down or inherited.

To put it simply, a family coat of arms belongs only to the family that registered the arms. To be more specific, the person that registered the arms is the owner, which is a play on words as the Chief Heralds Office owns the copyright but the individual has the authority to display the arms. Heredity is tricky. The first son my inherit the original arms. A second or third son may use the original as a basic arms but must difference it slightly. No other family may use the arms just because they have the same name. On the other hand, the crest is designated as belong to all families of the name. And many will add the crest to their own personal arms, even though it may be different.

Mary & Michael, My husband's grandfather was John Joseph CARMODY, b. 15/16 August 1863 in Ennis. He married Elizabeth Ann ALLOWAY on 18 Nov 1882. They apparently emigrated to Canada (near Sarnia, Ontario, across the river from Port Huron, Michiga) shortly after, because their 2 oldest daughters Mary Ellen (b. 26 Aug 1883) and Elizabeth Ann (b. 27 May 1885) were supposedly born in Ontario. Their next child, Andrew M. (b. 27 Sep 1887) was born in Port Huron, Michigan, as were their remaining children: Hugh William (b. 14 Aug 1890), Agnes J. (b. 2 Jun 1894), Margaret, and John Joseph, Jr. (b. 31 Oct 1898). Elizabeth (his wife) died 6 Jan 1921, and John Joseph married Mildred B. FITZGERALD 13 July 1921. They proceeded to have 3 more children: Michael Ashley (b. 19 Jun 1922), Joseph, and my late father-in-law, Gerald Alfred. According to John & Mildred's marriage record, his parents were Andrew CARMODY & Mary CALLERNY (her surname was in the crease of the book, and difficult to make out). I have not found confirmation of this in Ireland. John Joseph had at least 2 brothers, I believe, Patrick and Michael (b. abt. 1857). Michael died in Ireland, but sent many of his children to the Port Huron area, and traveled here himself (delivering Patrick and Lena to older siblings in 1912, per the Ellis Island site). Michael (and his wife, Mary Ann WHELAN) had one daughter who married a John MAHER, a son Edward, Margaret (b. 23 Aug 1879, married to James H. ALLOWAY), Andrew J. (b. 5 Mar 1886, married to Mary C.), Anna B. (b. 14 Apr 1888, married to Julius KLAMMER (divorced), then Frank M. BAUMAN), Patrick (b. abt 1897), and Lena H (b. 23-24 Sep 1898, married to Chester HAYNES (divorced)). I don't know for sure where the older 2 children died, but all of Michael's other children died in Michigan. The other brother, Patrick, had a son Andrew, but I don't know his other children. The 1901 census on the Clare Library web site has several Patrick CARMODY families, and I don't know which one is necessarily his. Most likely it's the one living closest to his brother, Michael. Michael's family was located in the Drumcliffe parish (per Anna's birth certificate), in the Borheen area (per Michael's death notice). The family names and ages in the 1901 census fit the information I have for him, and most of the kids hadn't emigrated yet, possibly just the oldest daughter, Margaret. He may be the Michael CARMODY mentioned in the 1880 Bassett's Directory of innkeepers, even though he would have been fairly young. The family did have a history of being in that business. Many other clusters of CARMODYs show up in other parts of the 1901 census, but I don't know if/how they are related. The only reference I find that might be John Joseph's father, Andrew, is in the 1855 Griffith's C-surnames. I find an Andrew there, in the Drumcliffe parish, Borheen--the same area I later find Michael's family, and Michael is due to be born in 1857. That's tentative, at best, though. I don't have any information about a Rosemary, Mary. Sorry. I don't have any Peter CARMODY hiding amongst the few names I have, either, Michael. If anyone has suggestions or ideas, I'm more than open to them. I'd like to fill out this family, and make some progress going back on these lines.
