Seems like I've been in touch with you three. Just thought I would toss in my Carolans from Nobber, Co. Meath. There were at least three - Thomas and two children, Julia and Bernard - who came over in 1850 and 1852 to New Jersey, then on to Illinois. Could be there were others who stayed in the east but there's no proof....yet.

My Carolans are from Co. Tyrone, where there are a LOT of Carolans, and very few of them show up in the IGI, assuming that's the FamilySearch database you refer to. Patricia, I have Carolans from Meenachrane, Co. Tyrone and Philadelphia, PA; Farrells from Waterford and Philadelphia (no connection between them -- the Carolans are on one side of the family, the Farrells on the other). Highly unlikely we'd be connected, as neither is an uncommon name, but seeing the two together in your post did make me wonder. Patricia, As for your question -- No one could easily look up this cert for you without knowing the year and borough. You are pretty sure your Margaret Farrell would have died in Manhattan; did you find the possible cert number in an index and was it for Manhattan? the index should tell you the year, too.
