Hi Marion; The collection at Ancestry is called /Chicago Irish Families, 1875-1925/. However, when I Googled ""/Chicago's Irish Families 1830-1900/", I found a page which had it hot-linked. (www.geocities.com/heartland/prairie/8088/aa.html). That hot-link, in-turn, took me back to the aforementioned DB on Ancestry. In re /The Irish at Home and Abroad/, try www.ireland.com/ancestor/magazine/articles/iha_placenames.htm Cheers, Masugu
