Good evening:
Most of all the Carolan's came from New York Ports. Have you check the Ellis Island
New Index yet. I do have some friends that are O'Carolan in New York City now and are
from Ireland. I do know that the Carolan name is famous in Michigan, California,
Austrailia. I also have a friend who has found the marriages of those in Ireland. If you
need the sites e-mail me and I will contact them.
Have a good day. I know we lost the O' Over The Ocean. True story.
My father is Joseph John Carolan-Father-Owen-Mother-Catherine Veroncia
Berkery-Slattery-Catherine had several sisters that married and lived in New York. Her
father remarried after her mother died and those children are somewhere in Chicago
according to my great aunt who lived in the Bronx. That Aunt's nick name is Aunt
Bertha. The other Aunt last name was Harrron, I believe I did have address. I did have
pictures, too back in 1992 taken in New York City.
There children are Catherine, Margaret, Owen, Joseph, I think I have this correct. I do
know that one was called Sis, Peggy, Buddy and my daddy Joe.
Margaret(Peggy) married Joesph Decampo nick name Georgie they had two children named
Theresa and Joseph( who has a law firm in New York City under DeCampo. Joseph married
Arlene Rosen from Michigan. They live in New Jersey so does Theresa. Lived on Perry St
and Horatio St in the Village in New York and then moved to Jackson Heights.
Buddy I don't have all the information had a son Michael who died later from Vietnam
problems. Michael had a wife and child.
Catherine I cannot recall at this moment, but all her children died. Lived in the Queens.
My father Joseph John lived was in the military as his brother Owen and Father, so was
Catherine Berkery father.
My father married In San Antonio, Texas, was twice in the military in Korea and Vietman.
Married Irene Judy Sahr from Saginaw, Michigan and divorce in Texas in the 1960's.

Antonio, Texas.
Two live in Texas and two live in Michigan. Marc is married to Debbie Hill, Sky married to
