here is an update on family history surrounding william carroll of seagoe/portadown armagh
william carroll b.1832 -d.1917 - married Margaret Vaughan b.1831 [father james vaughan 1808-1868 possibly]
Children of william are - william 1864-1940, ellen b.1866 , hannah b.1869, william b.1870 [yes 2 williams] and possible earlier father of first william b1832 is another william carroll born 1809 d.1860 -this area of family history is very difficult to verify and locate so any more information is welcome [so about there being 4 williams but they span 3 generations and beyond-thanks
