He had other siblings; but, I only know that the youngest was Peter Farrell. The family moved from Langford to Charlesville (now named Rath Luric) in the 1880s. Daniel Joseph Farrell immigrated to the USA (date unknown) and Peter Farrell remained in Ireland. Of Peter's descendants, I know of a son named Jack Farrell born about 1871, died 1956. Jack had a son, Tom Farrell and a daughter, Kathleen Farrell. As of 1978, both Tom and Kathleen were still living in Rath Luric. According to family lore, Daniel Joseph Farrell entered the USA through New Orleans, Louisiana and migrated northward along the Mississippi River. At some date, either in Ireland or the USA, he married Ann Ward, born August 15, 1832, in County Cork, Ireland. They had 6 children: Peter (a railroad engineer); Daniel Joseph, b. January 29, 1860, d. October 1934; Ann, who married a Mr. Caldwell; Elizabeth, who married Hank Cummings; Mary, b. August 12, 1881, d. May 11, 1899; and Andrew, b. April 7, 1871, d. April 24, 1892, from a railroad injury. 31
