"Centenarian....At the Poor House in this county there is an
old man by the name of James Conway, who says that if he
lives till the 8th of April he will be one hundred years
old.  His life according to his account has been full of
adventure.  He has served in three wars--- the war of 1812 -
--The Indian war of '36 and the late war.  Notwithstanding
his advanced age he gets about very well." (note by
transcriber: Name should be Conroy).
 
 Carroll 1850-1870 and 1880 census
(1880 shows him as 105 years old).  The only war record I
can find is where he served as a private in the Civil War in
1862.
