And other document about his son Jeremiah (surgeon) mentions "the son of Dublin merchant".Note: the drawn family tree and in McCarthys of Munster 1997 edition p529 has him dead in 1834: this must be wrong since he is a witness to his daughters wedding in 1854 (unless it is Jeremiah junior), also:McCarthys of Munster 1997 1st edition p316 states " The son [of Daniel McCarthy and Ellen Williams] Jeremiah, who died in 1839, left a son also named Jeremiah, who was born in 1836. He is a doctor of medicine , and resides in London". The 2nd edition p529 " (pages also attached in zip file " mccarthy familiy tree.7z. I notice that the2nd edition has changed the death of Jeremiah senior to 1834.Note: if Jeremiah senior died in 1834, then the birth of his son in 1836 must also be wrong.Note 2: Because his daughter was called Jane AFFLECK McCarthy, there is a decent possibility that her mother's maiden name was Affleck.

Irish Founder Members: 1. Jeremiah McCarthy (1837-1924)J.J. Smith and C.S. BreathnachDepartment of Physiology & Histology. University College, Earlsfort Terrace, Dublin 2,Ireland:The son of a Dublin merchant, Jeremiah McCarthy graduated BA fromTrinity College Dublin in 1859. After a spell as a classics master at the RoyalSchool, Dungannon, he moved to London where he became a part-timestudent at the London Hospital Medical School. He qualified MRCS in 1866,LSA in 1867, MB (Lond) 1868 and FRCS 1873 (Bulloch, 1933). He was on thesurgical staff of the London from 1869 to 1898 and lectured in physiology inthe Medical School from 1877 to 1889 (O'Connor, 1988). When the School wastransformed into the Medical College, McCarthy was a member of the jointboard (9 governors, 6 staff members) which decided that students' fees shouldbe pooled, thus bringing to an end the old pernicious system of consultantstaking on their own pupils (Clark-Kennedy, 1963). AIcCarthy (1875) beganwork on ganglionic histology without consulting the literature, only to discoverthat his findings had been anticipated. He contributed to Heath'sDictionary of Surgery and Quain's Dictionary of Medicine, in the second editionof which he detailed the use of electrical stimulation in impotence (Curling &McCarthy, 1894). As a result of an accidental infection McCarthy ultimatelydeveloped locomotor ataxia (Bulloch, 1933). Although forced by the ataxia toretire prematurely in 1898, the disease progressed slowly and he died inLondon on 26 April 1924.McCarthy was not in Burdon-Sanderson's house on 31 March, but he waspresent at the inaugurating meeting in Romanes' on 5 -May, and signed withthe other diners at the Criterion Restaurant on 26 MIay 1876, in strict termsthe inaugural meeting (Sharpey-Schafer, 1927). Though not an active laboratoryinvestigator, he regularly attended meetings.source: PROCEEDINGS OF THE PHYSIOLOGICAL SOCIETYMEETING ATUNIVERSITY COLLEGE AND ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS IN IRELANDDUBLIN - 20-21 September 1991 (PDF version found).
