Cartys, Berry, and Conlons from Westmeath

[Bobby Conlon]

Patrick Carty born around 1800 marries an Ann Conlon about 1830 or so. They have an William born about 1840 and marries a Roseann Holloway. Ellen marries a John McCann, a Ptrick and probably a bunch more. Ann Conlon's brother Thomas marries an Anne Berry.

Hi,

I am researching a Mary Berry from Tubberclaire who married a Michael McLaughlin - could she be related to your Anne Berry?

Researching my immigrant ancestors, I found they arrived at Castle Garden, NY, USA on 26March1849 on the barque/ship Huma.  As part of the information I was given about passage, it was related that " Passage was not uneventful. Ship's records state passenger 'Patrick Carty died 8th March 1849 in consequence of an injury received in a gale of wind.' "

I obviously don't know that this was your Patrick Carty, but interestingly, I recently was given information that my Irish immigrant ancestors, the Hassetts, may have been from County Westmeath (Clonmellon Parish).
