I will check out county Meath. I really need to go to New York City at the court house to
check on some of my family. This court house is across from the World Trade Center. So I
might have some difficulties in obtaining information from the probate section.
In my fathers line, his mother was a Berkery, Slattery, then I think Ford. I do know that
the Carolan name is mostly from Tyron County and Caven. This part of Ireland is in the
north and the other on the line that divides the north. I was at the Texas Archives in
Austin and found alot of information. I had the pleasure of looking in the birth records
of the 50's. Including books that were so old that when you copied them they fell
apart.
Have a nice day.
