Dear Riobard, Thank you for replying to my email.I will write to Fr. Walsh and request the Birth and Baptismal records. Great News! Since you have the Family-Trees it would save me untold hours of research,quite possibly incorrect research.Please advise by direct e-mail how I may reward you for time and effort to provide same. I first found the Beara archives and read thread after thread, its going to take months but what a joy. I believe you have chronicled the "Beara Nation". The stories are superb! Do not stop! Then I read about "some months to go" , retirement on the horizon, and the admonishment to those who come too late. It was a happy day to see your postings in later years. Riobard, Thanks for being here and don't let " The Bloody Blaguards get you". A Merry Christmas and a healthy New Year to you and Family. Jack
