Research Notes

There are several Bridget Carroll's in Iowa late 19th and early 20th century, all married to Patrick Carroll's. I have excluded as impossible these:

• Death certificate for Bridget Carroll, spouse Patrick Carroll, parents Francis O'Dowd and Catherine Collary (found on familysearch)
• Memorial for Bridget (Ryan) Carroll, spouse of Patrick Carroll, found on Findagrave. Name at birth is contradictory.

On familysearch these records can all be found and seem possible, but are contradictory:
