Hi, my name is David Jones and I am on the Carawan mailing list. My wife is
a Kirvan and her family originated in Galway as did many of the people I
have been reading about.
Do you have any Kirvans in your data?
Thank you,
David Jones

Glenn,
I don't know about the entire Kirwan family history, but I have posted
much of the Kirwan history in County Galway as well as the 1716 will of
Matthew Carrowan/Kirwan and the estate records of John Carawan of
Dorchester County at the Kirwan web site:
http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~jmack/kirwan.htm
Much of the Dorchester County research was done by our friend Ruffin
Cooper. We have more materials which could be placed online if I ever
found the time. This is connected with our Carawan web site at:
http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~jmack/carawan.htm
If you have any other Kirwan or Carawan records you would like me to
post on the sites, please let me know.

I have recently acquired the entire Kirwan Klan family history dating from
Matthew Kirwan who first entered the country from Ireland. There is very
compelling evidence that we Carowans (Carawans, etc) were Kirwans at least
until 1745 when a clerk of court in Dorchester Cty probably misspelled the
name. The records indicate that John Kirwan (wife Mary) was also one and
the
same John Carawan and had three sons, Matthew, John, and Peter and a
daughter Elizabeth. I believe I can certainly help you Kelly with the
info
you are seeking. I hope to one day sooner than later put this info
in
electronic form for distribution. I will look to see if I can find info
on
James in the book and will get back to you.
