Notes:

John married Ellen Holland in Ireland (Kilmoremoy?) and came to the U.S. immediately thereafter.

Recollections of (Julia Ellen Myers McCartney), narrated by Josephine or Frank McCartney(?):
Grandfather and Grandmother left Ireland in a sailing ship as soon as they were married. Grandpa's brother came with them. The trip took nine months. They came right to Calais, Maine and made their home. She heard about two years ago the old house was still there. Grandmother's name was Ellen "Nellie" Holland. His father was a blacksmith in Bellenar, County Mayo, Ireland. They had Aunt Bridget first, then Pat, Jen, John, then Edward then Aunt Nell (she forgot Aunt Ann). They all were born in the house on Monroe St., Calais, Maine, but at that time there was no church there, so they were baptized at Milltown, N.B., all but Aunt Nell. She was the only one baptized in Calais.
