Hi Gwen and other listers. Thanks for taking on this new list Gwen. I'm interested in the history of the Irish who came to Carleton County / Bytown. My Web Site is shown below - it contains genealogy information and e-mail contacts for many of the early Irish families in this area, but we're always looking for more contributions! You can search for a surname, geographic area (e.g. Tipperary, Huntley, etc), or a subject matter (e.g. famine) at the search engine page (below). Good Luck Gwen, and have fun with this list - it promises to be interesting. ...
