I realize this was posted several years ago but will give this a shot. I'm writing
from Massachusetts USA. My now deceased father, Edward J. Carr of Dedham, Massachusetts,
told me that we are descended from Carrs in Roscommon. As his knowledge didn't seem to
extend beyond that one fact and my interest in the subject was weak, I have nothing more
to go on. I'd like to find out where in Roscommon our family hails from and whether or
not we have relatives living there today. My father was second generation American. His
father, Edward Francis Carr of Dorchester, MA and Dedham, MA, was married to Anna Morrison
of Dorchester, MA. I believe that my great grandfather was Edward Carr from Ireland and
would have come to the Boston area early in the last century.
