The Carroll's of the Kildimo area

LimerickKildimo (Limerick)

My Great grandfather was James Carroll of Kildimo he came to New York city where he met (probably knew in Kildimo) Margaret Roche-also of Kildimo. They did not come over together from what I see. James father was Michael Carroll born 19 Jan 1848 Kildimo. His mother was Catherine Nealon-known as Kate. She was born in 1852 in Kildimo.

Micheal's father was Patrick Carroll-who I do not know when he was born, etc except that Michael's mother was Maria/Mary Fitzgibbon. Michael and Catherine were married on 31 July 1870 In Kildimo with the witnesses- Peter Kennedy and Margaret Nealon.

I would like to know more of Patrick Carroll and Maria/mary Fitzgibbon's information and family-if possible.

Thank you,

Mrs. Carol Ann Ficorilli

Hello again Carol!

Likely Patrick Carroll was born before 1831 in Kildimo so a record would not be available. There are many Mary/Maria Fitzgibbons baptismal records in Co. Limerick on the subscription site Roots Ireland, however, none in Kildimo. If Maria was baptized in Kildimo it would have been before 1831 and a record is not available. She may have been baptized in a nearby parish but we would need to know her parents names to find a record.

Here is the info I have so far on Michael carroll and family. The picture I added on my aunt Cecilia Carroll-she was the one who went over to Ireland in 1976 to visit the family there in the Kildimo area.
