I'm not sure if there is any connection to Julian McCarthy's inquiry , but I am looking for the McCarthy family in County Limerick. The last known ancestor is named Charles McCarthy, born about 1830-1834, in Co. Limerick, apparently (according to his death record). He married Bridget Browne from CastleRobert, Adare, Co. Limerick, but they were in the USA by then. I am trying to find out the names of his parents and earlier. Any clues would be appreciated. Sara J. T.

Hi Sara, These are the two Charles McCarthy's that I could find online. I will check the book and film for him to see if there are any that are closer in year of birth. Charles Mc Carthy Birth 2 Nov 1825 St. Michael's, Limerick, Limerick, Ireland parents Michael Mc Carthy and Ellen Collins Submitted by a member of the Mormon Church Carles Mc Carthy Christening 27 May 1837 Askeaton, Limerick, Ireland Parents Thady Mc Carthy and Mary Halpin This is extracted Christening records. I have a film on permanent loan for the Church of Ireland Records for County Limerick and will try and check this today. If I don't get to it today then it may have to wait until after the first of the year, as our Family History Center closes the week of Christmas and sometimes New Years.

To various good folks on this message: 1.I have an old (date unknown) postcard of Rathkeale showing the street, houses, a few people, bicycles and carts. I would be glad to share it online. There is a message...undated and unsigned on the reverse side indicating that the writer had lived in Rathkeale, Limerick. Wish it had more info. 2. My ggrgrandmother, Mary Ann O'Connor, was born on Williams Street in Limerick City July 21, 1844 to John O'Connor and his wife Mary O'Mara O'Connor. Mary Ann's older brother Reginald (aka Gerald and RJA O'Connor) was born in 1842. The family lived above their shop on Williams Street. There was a third child, thought by my gaunt Nell to be a girl ( born either before or after Mary Ann) who died at the age of one week. Years later a daughter of Mary Ann and John O'Connor wrote "Mamma's father died when she was five years of age and her mother when she was seven both at their house on Williams St. in Limerick, Ireland. Uncle Pat Guthrie and his wife, our Aunt Ellen who was Mamma's Aunt (born O'Mara) continued the business for 4 years when they closed out what was left of it by then, and came with the children to Illinois, near Byron and Oregon." My mother and I have spent many years trying to learn more about this family but we have not succeeded in learning any BMD dates or places of same. The family was Catholic. The Uncle Pat Guthrie referred to as the husband of Ellen O'Mara (Mary O'Mara O'Connor's sister) by all indications I can find is a member of the Guthrie family who lived near Ennistimon, County Clare, and one of several of that family who emigrated to Illinois and Iowa in the 1850-1855 time frame. I would surely be grateful for any assistance. Merry Christmas.
