In 1833 a land patent was issued to TERRANCE CARROLAN for 200 acres at Grenvile\le, Lot 4 Range 10. This is the only record of Terrance. No church death record has been found. Any clues?

The Quebec Land Grants database has an entry for a Terence Carrolan which indicates the letters patent were dated 28 Feb 1857 and the location was Grenville, Argenteuil. I couldn't find anyone else by that name listed.
There are a few family trees for a Terrance Carlin in Quebec however he was born about 1830 in Ireland and emigrated in 1833.
Sorry I couldn't be more help.

O'Carolan was of course, Ireland's most famous player of the harp.

Thanks for your reply. I have contributed to the Terrance Carlin/Carolan/Carling tree. He was my great-grandfather. Supposedly born in County Mayo about 1828. The Terrance I am looking for would be his uncle, also Terrance Carrolan. That 200 acres in Grenville was later in the name of James Carlin and I have found almost all of his 9 children and their descendants. I have been contacted by Glen Carlin of Montreal and he can trace his family to Bangor Erris in a town land called Glencullen. Both families show up in Canada in the same year. They must be related.
