38 Years With Durhams Retirement of C.S.M. T. Carroll of Bishop Auckland
At the Sergeants' Mess, Drill Hal1, Bishop Auckland, last night, C.S.M. T. Carroll was the recipient of two presentations on the occasion of his retirement after 38 years' service with the 6th D.L.I. first with the Old Volunteers, then the Territorials, the sergeants of the Battalion C.S.M. Carroll was given a Westminster chiming clock, and from the hon. members of the mess a silver teapot, both being suitably Inscribed. W. Bradley occupied the chair. R.S.M. L. Pearce said that 38 years in the Army during which time there had been two wars seemed a good record. He congratulated Tommy Carroll, and was pleased to see him looking so well even after the hard and strenuous life he had led. "As I look round the room I wonder how many more old sweats Bishop Auckland has got," he said. "I see 'Old Bill' Condon and Bob Harburn in their glorious array Bobby Barron, W. Lancaster and others." He said it gave him great pleasure to extend to C.S.M. Carroll the life membership of the mess. Mr J. G. L. Drummond, on behalf of the honorary members of the mess, said he was delighted to have the honour of asking Mc Carroll to accept the silver teapot. He was delighted to know that the sergeants' mess had bestowed on Tommy Carroll life membership of the mess. Mrs Pearce, wife of the A.S.M., handed over the presents to C.S.M. Carroll, and, on behalf of herself and the company present, hoped that he would have the pleasure of enjoying them for many years. C.S.M, Carrot. then responding, said that 38 years ago he joined the Battalion drummer-boy, and Old Bill Condon was then his colour-sergeant. But it seemed many years to recall, he had enjoyed with serving the Battalion. "I do most sincerely regret having to relinquish my association with the 6th D.L.I.," he said, " but Anno Dominio calls and however much one feels like refusing to answer the like good soldiers we obey. An ertertaining programme was afterwards provided by Mr J. Donnelly's Party Mr H. Copper (baritone), Mr Albert Coates (tenor), and Mr Aby Brown (comedian).

William Carson born 1884, first joined the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers in 1902 for six years service. In the 1911 census then living in Ballyshannon, Donegal he was listed as a Army reservist.
The only records I have discovered from WW1 are his medal Index card and POW records from the International Red Cross records. He was captured on 17/9/1914 in Compienge, France and appears to have been held in many POW camps until the end of the war. He returned home and became a Postman in LetterKenny, Donegal and married Margaret Kelly in 1922. He died in 1931.
