Hi, I am linked to another group, GenIre, I think. At any rate, whenever I get e-maill from them, their address is listed as NOT-A-REAL-ADDRESS@bl-30.rootsweb.com. When I try to send some reply or whatever to them, my mail keeps coming back stating that this is not a valid address. Is there anyone here who also belongs to this group and can advise me as to how one sends mail to this list? Someone on the list was asking about the quality of Heritage Centres in doing research. The following is my reply I had research done by Mayo South Heritage Centre a couple years ago. It cost me about $100., but I feel it was money very well spent. The folks there, especially Mr. Gerry Delaney, did a wonderful job in starting me on the road to Raheen Barr, the home of my Gallagher ancestors. I would suggest writing to them initially to see what kind of preliminary material you may need to submit. This usually gives them an idea about how feasible the search may be. If the Sligo Centre operates the same way, they will respond to tell you what you need to know regarding their services/research. At first I was skeptical, but when they were able to give me a bit of information which I had known previously but had not shared with them, I knew they were legit. Good luck, and if you need any other particulars, feel free to contact me. Mike Dellger
