Kathy, this is about as close as I've come to a connection in that area. I can't put dates to anything yet,though. This would be my fathers extended family, that I'm trying to trace. They came to this country in 1872-73;settled in S Philly on Passyunk Ave in Epiphany Parish. I have them there from 1872-1910 per the Census'. My GGM name was Mary Ellen Kirkwood(nee Carr). The entire family is buried in New Cathedral Cemetery in Juniata Park Section of Phila.,except my Gf who is buried in Holy Cross,with his wife. This is totally out of synch for these times, unless there was total reinterrment of the entire family,which is unlikely.
On the 1910 Census the surviving family members appear to live on the 2600 Block of E Gordon St and on E Norris St. House number is illegible. My GGF appears as a boarder. My GGM died in 1892 and some of her children predeceased her. The last one to die was my G aunt Ella/Ellen Kirkwood who died around 1941 from lung cancer. We have been trying to obtain funeral records from St Annes',Holy Name and Immaculate Conception Parishes,but no one seems to know anything. My contention is that MaryEllen Carr Kirkwood had family members in that neighborhood,who took care of her surving kids,after her death in 1892. Perhaps,they came over before or after she did. I know a family of Carrs that lived on Belgrade St,as I worked at NE Hospital with a Ray Carr and he had afew brothers and sisters,as well as a few children. I have not been able to contact any of them. Ray has since passed away,as has his sister with whom he lived on Cambria St,just off Kensington Av.
I have no idea of any Carrs outside of Philadelphia,but in this family history thing; all things are possible. Thanks for the information,and I'll keep it on file. JIIM

Maybe you can help me. I had a ggreatgrandmother named Mary Carr.Now the trouble comes in our family Bible says that Mary Carr was born in Canada,in 2/9/1868 it also says she died and is buried in Radcliff Alta, Canada, but according to the records in Madison County, Illinois, Alton she is buried in the Alton cemetery with her husband, John Hessenauer. The Bible and the records both say she died 7/25/1921.The only records I could find was the marriage that was on 12/14/1886, but was not registered till 4/4/1892.John and Mary had three boys, Richard Earl, Leroy John, Louis Carr.Would love to find out who Mary Carrs father and mother are. Thanks Linda Faith

Brian, thanks for the reply to my query. I think your relatives are too far to the west in Philadelphia. I think my GGms family would have had to settle in the parishes of Sts Anne or Holy Name. My quandry is- my family lived in S Phila in Epiphany parish from 1872 through the 1880 census period. Then in 1900 through 1925 they are in Fishtown,which in those days was a world away. The eldest child born in 1869 in Ireland,died in 1884 in S Philadelphia and is buried in New Cathedral. That is a great distance from where they lived in S Philly. They established their roots in S Philly and died in Fishtown,but where were they in the meantime. I am trying to find out whether or not my GGm had any other family that may have migrated to the US and they stayed near them. My GGf was born in Scotland and his siblings were in W Pa., so he is not the hold-up. These are my dads grandparents and there are all sorts of maladies in the history of this family that are too convoluted to ge!
t into here. The records in Ireland show Carr and I havent seen a name change on any "official documents" for my GGm .
I don't have any idea how devout they were religiously,but the only parishes around at that time were Holy Name and St Annes'. It's possible that Immaculate Conception was there,but I haven't found out anything,there.
Brian,again,thanks for the look up. If you should come across any Carrs from those areas,please keep me in mind. Thanks. JIM

Hi, I've been at the library today searching for my Carrs.
Last Summer I spent some time in VA, TN, and NC following my George Carr from Wytheville, Wythe Co., VA to Jonesborough, Washington Co., TN to Pendleton Dist., SC and on to Franklin Co., TN. Great Fun!
In the process I discovered George's Father was Walter Carr/Kerr. George was born 1746 in New Jersey.
My question is this - Do you have children's names of Walter born about 1632 or Thomas born 1683?
My Walter was probably born between 1700-1720, so could be a son of the above mentioned Thomas or another son of Walter/1632.
My Walter had sons, James, Samuel, George, John, Walter Jr., Jonathan and daughters Rachel,Mary, and Susannah.
Thanks, Shirley

My great grandfather, Robert E. Carr (formerly McIlcar) and family are buried in New Cathedral Cemetery. They hail from the area south of Castlefin, Co. Donegal.They settled in at 2018 Cambridge St., opposite the south wall of Girard College. The only Mary buried in that plot is Robert's mother, Mary A. (nee BROWNE) Carr who was born in Gortnagrace, Co Donegal in c.1817 . At the time she died in Apr 1893 she was residing at 917 So. 23rd Street. My grandfather William J.raised his 11 childern in the 2400 block of No. 19th Street in Our Lady of Mercy Parish.
Looking for any information that could document The birth places of Parker
Carr and Judith Preston's 14 children between 1770 and 1795. Some information
states the oldest,Bradbury was born in Cabot, VT. 1770 . Other sources state
they were all born in Chester NH others in Grantham NH. One
source,Strafford,Rockingham,Vt. When one considers the geographic and time period and sense Parker
and Judith Carr were in Chester NH. in 1770 {hist.of chester) and New Grantham
NH.between 1770 and 1780 ( history of New Grantham by L.D.DUNBAR ). Arriving
in Cabot around 1800 it would seem they were all born at various locations
between ChesterN.H. and Cabot, Vt.
Would appreciate any help thanks , geo.c.
Hi Maria,
I'm very excited to see your information on OK carrs !
My uncle used to write to Thelma Conner about her family's probable
connection with his grandfather John Carr from IL. John was born 1847and left IL to go
west, probably OK after his wife died in 1879. John married again in OK at
least 1 time and did not contact IL Carrs again.
When John died in the early 1900's someone sent an earlier photo of him to
his son, my grandfather, making contact with Thelma possible thru the '60's.
Unfortunately these letters with Thelma were lost when my uncle died.
I think I remember a few things about her from what my uncle told us and I
have information on John's IL family and a few ancestors.
I hope to hear from you. Betsi Carr McKay
