I am looking for relatives who were living in Dublin last between 1881 and 1898. The father was Andrew Carrick born to John Carrick and Ellen. Andrew married in 1868 to Lillie Jane Tickell and had 4 children. Two were named Mary Adelaide Carrick and Lillie Carrick. The other two had no names on the birth record of 1872 and 1875 one female and male. Maybe they died?
I know Lillie immig to US and marries there to a Mr Smith and dies in Bexar 1924. Mary Adelaide goes to US and then settles in UK I believe. But I can't find what happened the the father Andrew Carrick. He is in the Irish directories in 1881 but then disappears. I haven't found a death record for him either or an immigration record.
He was living in 2 Clonliffe Tce East, Clonliffe road in 1881 as a Traveller.
Can anyone help with further info of where I might find out what happened to him.

From the Irish Times John MacCaully Carrick died sometime between December 1859 and December 1862.
Andrew,his son married (see edition 23rd October 1868) and on 29th December 1869 the paper records the sudden death of Andrew Carrick (a son of Andrew?) On 7th March1871 Page 6 in an advert. the paper records the bankruptcy of Andrew Carrick.
After that the family disappear off my "screen"

I have quite a few Carrick connections but they all date to approx 1790-1860 and almost all are located in the Kilbarrack, Sutton, Baldoyle, Howth area.
If you can link back to that time and place I would like to hear from you.

The Andrew Carrick who died in 1869 was not the son of John MacCaully Carrick, because the son of John MacCaully Carrick had several children. Must have been another Andrew...

Hi Quaxer,
Yes the newspaper reported Andrew Carrick died in the Jervis st hospital but a retraction was made the next day in the Dublin Freemans Journel. It was an employee of his.
I have never found out what happened to the real Andrew Carrick. I have traced his children to the US where they migrated in late 1800's but no trace of Andrew dying in Ireland or moving away.
It is a mystery.

Possible new info:
Andrew & Lillie Carrick's children included Mary Adelaide Carrick (1870-1946) who married Frank Cooper, lived in Houston Texas after immigrating to US in 1882. They had 4 children. When she was widowed, her brother John Frederick (Jack) Carrick (1872-1942) assumed the father's position, helping raise her children and never marrying himself. They are both buried in Hollywood cemetary in Houston.
Lily's middle name may be Agnes (1875-1924)...
Would love to have information about their beginnings in Ireland and if they originally came from Carrick, Scotland.... Thanks....

Hi, I have heaps of information on Andrew and Lily but am a bit pressed for time now. I will post the info as soon as I get a chance. What connection do you have to the family? I have been trying to find relatives of this last line of the Carricks for many years.
cheers

Hello,
I'm part of the Houston branch of the family tree. Going back from Andrew, I keep hitting a brick wall at the Dun family. I've looked for other family members which could open a back door to this area, but haven't found one yet. How are you connected?
-
Just marking this on the off chance one of you ends up linking up with my lot in Scotland.
Regards
Ann

Strangely enough, while documenting a completely separate part of my family tree, I came across a mention of Carricks from Scotland..hence, my question...I'll try to find it again...

Hi guys,
you probably already have this info but I will post it just in case :
LILY AGNES CARRICK
16 November 1875
MALAHIDE RD
PARENTS ANDREW CARRICK AND JANE LILY
JOHN FREDERICK CARRICK
20 May 1872
SANDYMOUNT
PARENTS ANDREW CARRICK AND JANE LILY
MARY ADELAIDE CARRICK
12 January 1870
MARY'S ABBEY
PARENTS ANDREW CARRICK AND JANE LILY
In 1868 Witness Andrew Carrick at the wedding of Samuel Tickell to Margaret Fahey - I presume Samuel was a sibling of Jane (father Thomas Tickell)
In 1882 there are ship records for ship name 'QUEBEC' for the following travelling to New Orleans, Louisiana
Andrew Carrick age 41
Mary Carrick age 11
John Carrick age 9
Lilly Carrick age 4
also travelling with them is what looks like a brother of Andrew
John Carrick age 47
Emelia Carrick age 46 (John's wife or sister ?)
Was Jane Tickell's father a Cabinet Maker and Timber Merchant ?
If so there is a sister of her's getting married : Sophia Tickell to Henry Pardy in 1871 in St. Thomas' Church Dublin, and there are also some more siblings of her's available online.
If you think this is the right family then Mary / Maria Quinn is her mother's name !

Hi Tara and Madielady,
Well you have given me the info I have been looking for with the shipping records for andrew and his children.
I could not find that anywhere and I knew he must have sailed with his children.
I did not know of a brother John Carrick but I did know or Emelia or (Amelia) his sister. There was a court case in 1868 where their mother Ellen Carrick was disputing the will and estate of her husband John Macauley Carrick after he died and the children were mentioned in this petition. There was no mention of John Carrick so I am wondering if he could be a cousin?
Andrew Carrick tried to carry on the Glass business but was bankrupted by 1871 and the whole business lost. He worked for a while as a salesman and commercial traveller but disappeared off the directies in 1882.
He married Lillie Jane Tickell in 1868 but she died in 1877 aged 29yrs leaving him with 3 small children.
I wondered why he left and went to New Orleans? He had his mother still in Ireland, she didn't die until 1885, his sister Jane (my great great grandmother) was widowed in 1875 with teenaged children. Possibly things were difficult and they decided to move away.
RE the Dun connection.
John Macauley Carrick's father was Alexander Carrick mother Jean Macauley, Alexander's mother was Isabella Dun married to Rev James Carrick, Isabella's father was the Rev Alexander Dun b. 1719 wife Elizabeth, his father was Alexander Dinn (spelt this way then) c. 1676 and mother Joanetta McAlister c. 1676.
I didn't go back any further as my search was really about the Carricks, Boyds and Macauley's.
Do either of you know what happened to Andrew Carrick? I'd love to know more. And what of the John and Amelia Carrick what happened to them?

I am following Pardy family, but interested in Tickell connect info as well. New info or corrections welcome! Some info I have:
* Sophia Tickell married Henry Pardy (widower) Jul 4, 1871 at St.. Thomas Church, Parish of St. Thomas, Dublin - Church of ireland.
* They moved to Limerick, where he lived. They had at least one son George Tickell Pardy b:Nov 20, 1872 Limerick
* I suspect Henry Pardy was related to a Monkstown Pardy family which was the Limerick / Dublin connection.
* I found a Joseph Tickell on Carysfort Ave in Monkstown in Griffiths Valuation ca 1848
* I have Sophia as daughter of Thomas N Tickell, Timber merchant
