I am so happy for all of you doing researh who can now access previously unaccessable records. It is ironic that I have searched in vain for twelve years for a connection and now that possiblility of breaking down my brick wall comes at a time in my life when I may not be able to afford to gather that information. I would greatly appreciate information on a good researcher that I might trust to do the job correctly. I paid good money in the past for what I considered poor searches. No body used their head to look at obvious leads because the lead was a woman whose surname prior to marriage was different or in one case they searched 25 years after the man's death to the early 1900's when the need was to go back in time, not forward. Good hunting to you all, I truly mean it! Diane Perkins researching Cleary, Hogan, Smith, Duly in the Birr part of Tipperary.
