Hello, My ggg grandfather Denis O'Sullivan (Beare) emigrated from Bandon to America in the 1830s with his wife Ellen Crowley and their children. Denis and Ellen married in Bandon in 1825. They had the following children: Denis b. 1826, Ellen Mary (my gg grandmother) b. 1829, Elizabeth b. 1830, Charles b. 1831 and Richard b. 1833. I have no info on the elder Denis' parents, but Ellen Crowley's parents were Charles Crowley and Elizabeth Lucey. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who might have any information on this branch of my family. Thanks. Sincerely, Rick Steigelman

I received an email from another researcher who mentioned a book, "Wexford Families", by Hilary Murphey.....as having a section by the title of "Peirce/Pierce/Pearce" .... Does anyone on the list have the book? Or know where I can obtain a copy? Or might be willing to copy the section on the Peirce family for me? My Peirce/Pierce/Pearce (spelled all three ways at times) line is in County Cork in the 1600s, and many of the descendants are still there in the late 1800s.....some have by then emigrated to America. <>< Doris....A Texan in Georgia..... Still shaking the family tree and dodging the nuts after 30+ years! IBSSG
