Charles Patrick Carman was born in Elizabeth, NJ in 1895. His mother died giving him
birth. His father was killed by a runaway team of horses in 1899. Charles was sent to
live with his maternal grandparents on their farm in Co. Derry (Londonderry)Northern
Ireland. Halfway between Dungiven and Limavady. His mother's maiden name was Hind.
Charles Patrick came to canada in 1914 and joined the Canadian Army and fought overseas in
the first world war. He met Catherine McGinnity in 1925 while working as a janitor at St.
Michael's Catholic Cathedral in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and married her in 1927. He
died of pneumonia in 1959, aged 64. Two children were born. Rose Catherine (my
mother-in-law) in 1929, and Paul in 1933. Both in Toronto. Any information on
Charles' ancestors would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Dan
