John Joseph CAREW

(Abt 21 Oct 1866 - 12 Jun 1935)

Sponsors at John's baptism were Anthony Ryan and Margaret Godfrey. The family's address on the baptism record is given as Newtown. Presumably this is the townland of Newtown in the parish of Soloheadbeg, and John's birthplace.

John emigrated to Canada in 1888 (according to the 1911 census of Canada) or 1891 (according to the 1921 census). He lived in Hamilton, Ontario where he worked as a mechanic (according to his marriage certificate), iron worker (from his daughter's birth certificate), plumber (from the 1921 census) and fireman for an underground cable company (according to his death certificate).

John died from a "cerebral hemorrhage and oedema" due to "toxic degeneration [of] viscera, acute alcoholic intoxication, chronic myocarditis, chronic nephritis".
