From a descendant:]]

So far as Daniel McCarthy is concerned, he is my 4 x Gt Grandfather . My line from Daniel goes to Robert McCarthy, his son, 1803—1843. Robert was a Printer, and in the 1841 census he was 38 years old and living in Teiers (Friar’s Walk) Walk, St Nicholas Parish, City of Cork. All the children, of school age, were at St Nicholas School.   A sister of Robert, was Margaret McCarthy, 1802-1839, who in 1822 married John Westropp Carey, 1778-1862. A brother of Robert McCarthy was the Rt Reverend Welbore McCarthy, D.D.,  He was, I think twice, the Bishop of Calcutta’s Commissary, i.e. ‘temporary deputy’ and latterly Archdeacon and Archbishop of Grantham. Robert McCarthy had married in 1810, Mary Jane Agar, daughter of the Reverend Charles Welbore Agar, Rector of Inniscarra. Robert and Mary had a number of children. My 2 x Gt Grandfather being the Reverend John Agar McCarthy, 1832-1890, who was a Church Missionary Society missionary in India, and married his wife, Mary Jane Carey, 1831-1915, daughter of Michael Carey of Cork, in Calcutta in 1859. Michael Carey was one of seven Carey brothers, who all served in the Army and Navy at the time of the Peninsular War.  Michael Carey was a Lieutenant in the 83rd Regiment. He was wounded at Talavera, served through the whole Peninsular Campaign under the Duke of Wellington, and received a Medal with eight clasps for his services.  A brother of Michael Carey, Randall Carey was the youngest Midshipman on board the ship that Napoleon was taken prisoner in. As such, he had to receive Napoleon’s sword.  Reverend John Agar McCarthy and his wife, Mary Jane (nee Carey) had seven children, the eldest of which, is my Gt Grandmother, Lizzie Martin McCarthy, who was born in Pershar, on the Indian Afghanistan border in 1860. In the 1871 Census, Reverend John Agar McCarthy was Vicar Designate of St Saviours, Battersea, London. He continued as a Vicar in England until his death in 1890 at Swaffham, Norfolk. His daughter, Lizzie Martin McCarthy married Robert Kohloff Clark, son of the Reverend William Clark, CMS Missionary in India and Ceylon.
