ROLL CALL (COTIPPERARY) - CAREY (KEARY*,CEREY*), TRACEY(TRACY*, TREACY*), MCDOOLE(MCDUELL*)

[John Carey]

Although I have yet to find the direct link to my Irish ancestors, I have developed, through the commonality of names/relationships, a very strong circumstantial case that they lived in the vicinity of Roscrea and Bourney, County Tipperary in the early to mid 1800's. My direct line appears to have emigrated to NE Niagara County (Gasport, Royalton, Middleport) in 1863 and can be tracked there through the early 1900's by US and NY census. My grandfather, Jeremiah (Jerry) Carey, with several of his brothers, moved to Pueblo, Colorado in the late 1880's.

While lengthy, it is my hope that the following will provide enough information for someone to link it to other Carey or Tracey families and can either support, or disprove, the circumstantial case I have developed.
