Hi Jane, I'm Bob Fay and I subscribe to the Fahey digest. I also administer the Fay list, and on an ongoing basis I have subscribers whose family surname started out as Fahey and was changed to Fay over the generations. They have lots of problems because of the name change. If you or other subscribers find some Fays in your lines I would be glad to post the info on the Fay list. Just send a note to me at madgrad&&@hotmail.com with the posting. or you could subscribe as may be most convenient for you.

Catherine Murray Date: Thu, 20 Apr 2000 08:09:33 -0700 Hello listers :-) Just signed on to the list this morning, and while reviewing the list archives have already found birth information on two of my great aunts! :-) Thank you to Pat Connors who had posted Fahy birth data from which I picked up two of my Gr-grandmother Lizzie Fahy's sisters, Bridget and Maryanne. My Gr-grandmother Elizabeth (Lizzie) was one of several children born to Laurence Fahy and Catherine Murray of the Coolfin/Abbey area. Would love to connect with anyone on the list who may be related. After Laurence's death, Catherine Murray Fahy married Michael Geraghty and reared a total of 15 children. Several of Lizzie's sisters emmigrated to Chicago. If any of this rings a bell, I would love to hear from you. More information can be viewed at http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~egan There you will find more information about Catherine Murray (whose nickname was "The Wren") and also a photo of Lizzie's sisters in Chicago. I recently finished transcribing 25 years of parish baptismal records for the Woodford/Looscaune Parish (1865 - 1889), and listed there are many, many Fahys. The link to the records is located at the bottom of the above referenced page. Looking forward to becoming better acquainted, and am delighted to have found this list.
