Name: Aideen Brown
City: Calgary, Alberta, Canada 
Comments/Suggestions: I found your site through Sean McCartan's "McCartan of Kinelarty" which I enjoyed very much.  This is the first time I have logged onto your site, but have not yet tested its content.  My mother was a McCartan from Co. Down, where I was born.  I now live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.  I have no McCartan relations on this side of the Atlantic, other than two of my sisters.  My interest is mostly in the history of my grandfather's anticidents.  His name was Daniel McCartan.  His father was Michael McCartan, who died in 1902.  Michael had two older brothers, Patrick who died in 1884 in Lower Burrna, Co. Down, and Edward who died in 1902 in Moneyscalp, Co. Down.  I know nothing of their descendents, so there could be some in the U.S.

20 May 1999 
Name: Chris Jauer
City: Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada 
Comments/Suggestions: Very interesting. As I am of German/ Guatemalan descent I was amazed to see both sides here.  How did this group get into a predominantly Irish genealogy site?  Whatever, keep it up... the Arzu family has been in Guatemala since before 1590 and the Jauer family goes way back...

19 October 1999 
Name: Sue Hamilton
City: St. Louis, Missouri, USA 
Comments/Suggestions: I am a Cartan descendant.  Julia Cartan, born June 28, 1801, Ireland, emigrated with her husband (who died during the voyage and was buried at sea) and at least 5 children. 
They settled in St. Louis, Mo.  Carten is Julia's married name.  Her known children are Bridget, James, John, Thomas and Julia.  I have accurate info on Jame, my greatgrandfather.  He was born 1834, Ireland.  He married Mary A. Murphy, June 8, 1876 in St. Louis.  He was a member of Branch 183 K. of C., a St. Louis Fireman Engine House 32, died July 1, 1900.  I am interested in finding any descendants of this branch and obtaining more info.

City: Toronto, Ontario, Canada 
Comments/Suggestions: Keep up the good work, there is a tremendous amount of very interesting history in this family and many people are working on it but not enough is being shared. FYI, the deGaulle piece first appeared in TIME Mag, 1967 (Canadian Edition) after he did his "Vive Quebec Libre" trick.

Comments/ Suggestions: Well, I have always understood that McCarten & Carten were the same bunch. We are from Wexford, and maybe Ferns, Kilthomas, as there is yet a distant cousin living there.  Any ideas? We are on Genforum under Carten
