Can anyone tell me about the above place which is supposed to be in Drummully Parish in Fermanagh? I have mention of it in a wlll from 1765,and also in the title of a book"Rosborough,The Later History of the Family of Rosborough of Mullinagoan of Fermanagh. I haven't been able to find it in the list of Townlands,so maybe it was a manor house or estate. Thanks in advance. Regards Beth

I made a discovery yesterday about the above records,and I will pass it on,in hopes that it might help someone else. I have been looking for the Tithe Applotment film for Clones Parish in Fermanagh for some time. Some of my Rosborough family were shown to be there from the Householders Index. Finally I found the records in the Tithe Applotment film for Clones in Monaghan. Film #0256588[FHC] had the information for both Fermanagh and Monaghan. Regards Beth

Thanks, Beth! I'm sure that info will help someone! Now, if only they had listed the names in the Tithes for Devinish parish! :-) Janet C-S

Many thanks to all who wrote with suggestions for an enjoyable visit to my roots area. It sounds a wonderful place for scenery, friendliness and not least the traditional music and the beverages<g>. On a more serious note, the tragedy of the "troubles" has already hit very close to home for I live near Manchester and we had a taste of what it really means. However, I can't let that put me off for I am determined to get there in the new year. Barbara

Hello, I've been off-line for awhile so will ask again - is there anyone on the list researching MOORE or GIBSON? My ancestors were Andrew MOORE who m. Sarah GIBSON in Fermanagh (prob. Enniskillen) ca 1790. They immigrated to Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada in 1830. Regards, Suzanne Lisson

I'm forwarding this helpful info: >From a personal observation of County Fermanagh, the home of my ancestors. I had the pleasure of visiting the area for a two week period in 1996. I stayed in several places, never paying more then 25.00 US for B&B. Some places were only 16.80 US for B&B. When I travel overseas, I go to see and do, so where I stay for the night is a minor consideration as I have never found a bad place to stay and the food was plentiful at all. I was hard pressed to find a detailed touring guide/map for this county as it is noted more for fishing and boating then anything else. These is a lot to see and do , especially if your ancestors came from this beautiful area. I purchased a "Fermanagh Lakeland" Outdoor Pursuits map at a local Gas station/grocery store and It proved invaluable as it had everything on it:ie, original spelling of townlands, roads and pathways to ruins, elevations of all the hills and mountains, location of old churches, graveyards, ect. The map cost about 5.00 US and helps me in my Genealogy work. Talk, Talk, Talk to the local people. They will tell you more of what you want to know then any tourist guide, book or map. I had been trying to locate the burial place of someone who died, way back in 1845. When I asked about this place, He politely informed me that the spelling and pronunciation was wrong, then proceeded to take me in his car to the exact place, which was no longer on the maps. Note of caution. If your trip is to be for an extended period of time, look for a Laundry for wash/ware as soon as you get there, they are few and far between. Enjoy the visit, for you will want to stay longer, will not want to leave, and will be anxious to return. Respectfully, Your Fermanagh County Host, William J Flanagan

I thought all you genealogists would get a kick out of these sayings...I can relate to one or two of them myself! My family coat of arms ties at the back....is that normal? My family tree is a few branches short! All help appreciated My ancestors must be in a witness protection program! Shake your family tree and watch the nuts fall! My hobby is genealogy, I raise dust bunnies as pets. How can one ancestor cause so much TROUBLE?? I looked into my family tree and found out I was a sap.. I'm not stuck, I'm ancestrally challenged I'm searching for myself; Have you seen me ? If only people came with pull-down menus and on-line help... Isn't genealogy fun? The answer to one problem, leads to two more! It's 1998... Do you know where your-Great-G. Grandparents are? A family reunion is an effective form of birth control A family tree can wither if nobody tends it's roots A new cousin a day keeps the boredom away After 30 days, unclaimed ancestors will be adopted Am I the only person up my tree... sure seems like it Any family tree produces some lemons, some nuts and a few bad apples Ever find an ancestor HANGING from the family tree? FLOOR: The place for storing your priceless genealogy records. Gene-Allergy: It's a contagious disease, but I love it Genealogists are time unravelers Genealogy is like playing hide and seek: They hide... I seek! Genealogy: Tracing yourself back to better people "Crazy" is a relative term in my family A pack rat is hard to live with, but makes a fine ancestor I want to find ALL of them! So far I only have a few thousand I Should have asked them BEFORE they died! I think my ancestors had several "Bad heir" days I'm always late. My ancestors arrived on the JUNEflower Only a Genealogist regards a step backwards, as progress Share your knowledge, it is a way to achieve immortality Heredity: Everyone believes in it until their children act like fools! It's an unusual family that hath neither a lady of the evening or a thief. Many a family tree needs pruning Shh! Be very, very quiet.... I'm hunting forebears. Snobs talk as if they had begotten their own ancestors! That's strange: half my ancestors are WOMEN! I'm not sick, I've just got fading genes Genealogists live in the past lane Cousins marrying cousins: Very tangled roots! Cousins marrying cousins: A non-branching family tree Alright! Everybody out of the gene pool! Always willing to share my ignorance.... Documentation...The hardest part of genealogy Genealogy: Chasing your own tale! Genealogy...will I ever find time to mow the lawn again? That's the problem with the gene pool: NO Lifeguards I researched my family tree... and apparently I don't exist! SO MANY ANCESTORS...........................SO LITTLE TIME! Hope you enjoyed this! Mary McG in Tennessee researching: REA

Thanks Mary McG. I really got a big kick out of that. Joyce

Gene, Referring to your letter about the way your father signed his name. My father did the same thing with our name McCoy except some times he would use two little dots under the small C like this ". I have requested the head of our Genealogy Library to see if he can find out why they did that. I have Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary but it says nothing about using those marks in this way. Will let you know if I find out anything. It is a mystery to me too. Joyce (could this be an abbreviation for MacCoy? )

Saw your e-mail and expected to find the web address of the Enniskillen Library. Do you have it and could you post it?
