I don't know much about where in Ireland they came from. My grandmother's family
is actually quite quiet and don't talk much about their family. I have heard rumor
about Dublin, but no verification as of yet. I have heard from a lady via email that her
side of the Carlon family has legend that the three Carlon brothers came in and lived in
New York and worked at a hotel. Apparently there was some shindig that went down with one
of the brothers and the hotel owners daughter and they had to "get out of town".
So, they traveled west and landed in Illinois.
Sorry I don't have more.
Jill
