Looking for information on where Pat McCarty came from before New Limerick, Me.
Patrick b c1822 married Catherine Louise Kelly and had daughter Mary 1845 supposedly Ireland. Their son Charles was born in Maine in 1849.
The first record that I can find is the 1850 Census where they show on the County Rd. New Limerick, Maine. Across the road staying with a Bradbury family are MAry, & Ellin Sheehan who I believe are my GGgrandmother's daughters by her first marriage to Dennis Sheehan who died before 1844 when she married my GGGrandfather Michael McCarthy in Bathurst NB Canada. This makes me believe that these Irish arriving in New Limerick c 1849 came through Bathurst, and this along with the fact that my GGrandfather Florence Francis moves to New Limerick 1869 & purchases land beside Pat, & when Patrick transfers land that had been in Catherine's name (after she died) to his daughter Florence (yes the same spelling as Frank's name), it is Frank that signes on the deed
Does anyone have any more information on where these Irish came from before 1849, or where in Ireland any of them came from?
