Hi Doc 1,
My Gr Gr Gr Grgrandfather is Andrew Carroll from Ardnagappary, Gweedore. His son James (18) came to Australia in 1859 on the Lady Elma Bruce as part of the Donegal relief Fund.  James married Mary Doogan (18) from Cloughaneely , who also sailed on the Lady Elma Bruce, in Australia at age 21.
The 1857 Griffith's Valuation - Tullaghobegly Parish, Co Donegal has a Carroll, Andrew, Ardnagappary Number and Letter of reference map - 52
Extracted From: Minutes of evidence taken before the Select Committee into Destitution in Gweedore and Cloughaneely. British House of Commons Sessional papers1857-58, Vol. XIII., p. 524-

Townland of Middleton
