    Notes:

    Excerpt from "Descendants of George Rowles" by Ann Moloney Lamb:

    Mary's marriage to Thomas Carey/Cary took place before the Cappamore records began. She immigrated to America after her husband's death, probably after 1852 when her paretns and siblings emigrated, with her children John and Conn. (Cappamore, Co. Limerick, parish records show 5 Carys born to the same parents, two named Thomas. It is likely the second Thomas was born after the first one died.) Lizzie Rowles family history only mentions two boys and that Thomas Carey died and was buried in Ireland
