Jim,

Thanks for your prompt reply - of most interest to me is the Carrabin connection as that is my more direct line.  I know they came from the Ardara area of Donegal and some stayed and some immigrated to the US.  I have not tried to trace our Gallagher connection.  I do know that Hannah Gallagher's father was Michael.  Best of luck in your search and thank you again.

Jim,

I just saw your post - I too have a carrabine in my family tree - from Ardara and Cloghboy area of donegal - we have found a wide variety of spellings - Carbon - Carrabine - Carbin.  The father was George Carrabin and his wife Annie Shovlin - They had 6 children that I know of - Annie, Patrick, Daniel, Catherine, Susan, and Mary.  Daniel married a Hannah Gallagher also from the same area.  I don't know if that connects with your Gallager line.
