Message Board Post:
There were several McCarrier families living in the Lisbon area in the early to mid
1800's. I am trying to locate information on the family of John and Bridget
McCarrier. John was born in Ireland in about 1798. He came to the New York area before
1830. He married Bridget Murphy about 1835 (2nd marriage for both). John farmed in the
Lisbon area, worked on the Erie Canal and later worked for the railroad in Ogdensburg.
The children were John, Sara, Rose, Margaret (married J. E. Doane), Julia (married R.
Hevenor), Thomas, Katherine, Alice and James. They used the name McCarrier in the 1850
and the 1860
US Census. Later they used Carrier. Bridget died in 1885 in Ogdensburg and is buried in
St. Mary's Cemetery. John died before 1885 but I have not been able to locate an obit
or record of death for John.
I am trying to locate any of their descendants and also to find where in Ireland John was
born. Any information is appreciated
