    3. Hi Folks, I'm making my first trip to the Family History Library in Salt Lake City Oct 2 - 9th. I've been very fortunate to have made 3 trips to Ireland and attended the 4th (and last?) Irish Genealogical Congress in Sept - Oct 2001. Wondered if anyone who has been there can offer any suggestions. I'm focusing specifically on Bourney and Moyne Parishes North Riding Tipperary County and my Madden-Dohertry-Grimes cast of characters I'm also very interested in Couraganeen Church Built in 1812 during the Penal times and why there seems to be so little information about it. Was it too rural for attention, or something else? Thanks in advance! Ed Madden Ridgefield

    3. Ed, I was in Roscrea/Couraganeen in July. I posted a trip report about a month back. Will forward you a copy shortly. Have used your past postings to great effect. The priest you dealt with has retired and the Couraganeen records transferred to Roscrea. It was nice to have access to them. I have similiar problems in finding any in-depth info on the area. I did have the opportunity to scan a book at the Roscrea library, published about 1983, on Corbally/Bourney. Most of the info was focused post 1900. A copy was available on ebay for about 10L. > Date: Sat, 24 Sep 2011 01:26:50 -0700 > From: > To: [email protected] > Subject: [COTIPPERARY] Advise; Family History Library, Salt Lake > > Hi Folks, > I'm making my first trip to the Family History Library in Salt Lake City > Oct 2 - 9th.
