We are alive! I am responding as quickly as possible and have started a file with all your information! It would probably be a lot more benefical to reply to all, not just to me when sending in info, because someone is bound to stand up and yell, "Hey that is where I am doing my research too!" I might be too slow, so when you write me concerning something you don't mind sharing, cc the Fianna too! Lets get this list active again! Gail or Anne, you might want to save this info as my backup , just in case I crash my drive! (Done that once already!)

As of now, I'm primarily interested in Co. Clare. My g-grandfather Michael Dillon emigrated to Buffalo, NY in 1885 (apparently). This was obtained from an obit for his son my grandfather, but can find no other info on he or his wife Bridget Kane. He apparently came with only three children, James, Mary and Michael (my grandfather). I know what happened to them and their children but my g-grandparents had a number of other children (at least three) whose progeny ended up in Australia, New Zealand and Ohio with some staying in Ireland (records almost 40 yrs old). So far I havn't been able to locate any live numbers. Any suggestions??
