Hi, I am Laura Schmidt, the actual addy for Fianna is Fianna-L@rootsweb.com to send mail! To subscribe is Fianna-L-request@rootsweb.com Never heard of GenIre!!!!! If you have irc capabilities you might want to come to the IIGS network.

I subscribed here but this is the address that appears on each piece of mail: NOT-A-REAL-ADDRESS@bl-30.rootsweb.com. Would someone please shed some light. Also, on my Newswatcher, the only irish genealogy location I can get is soc.genealogy.uk+ireland. I know that there is supposed to be a separate one for Ireland. How can I get that one to show up on my Newswatcher. I keep getting a message that they cannot handle more than the 16000 that are already there. Thanks in advance for any assistance regarding this matter. Mike Dellger
