ANNOUNCING NEW TIGS DATA BASE This message is being sent to: Rensselaer County List Troy Irish Genealogy Society List Albany County List Saratoga County List Schenectady County List Genealogy-NYS List Irish-NY-Troy List NY Irish List NY-Hudson River List NY-Rollcall List NY-Mohawk-Valley List NY-Warren-Washington-Saratoga County List If you haven't looked at the Troy Irish Genealogy Website lately, there is a new, but small, data base of young Irish-Americans of note in Troy, NY. There are almost 400 names on this data base index which includes, in addition to the young Irish-Americans, the names of their spouses, parents and in some case other names of individuals connected with the individual such as who they worked for, etc. NOTE: ALL names (wives, parents, other relatives, business connections, etc) mentioned in the biography of the men are listed in the index. So, when you click on a name and the biography comes up for a DIFFERENT named individual, please read the biography as that name will be mentioned in the text. Information in this data base is from the book, Representative Young-Irish-Americans of Troy, NY, by E. H. Lisk, 313 River St., Troy, New York, printed in 1889. One of the most interesting elements of this new data base is a sketch of the individual shown alongside his biography. There is also a three page introduction about the founding of Troy, NY. To see the new data base go to: Troy Irish Genealogy Society website http://www.rootsweb.com/~nytigs/ And click on PROJECTS and then click on "Names From Representative Young Irish-Americans of Troy, NY 1889" Thanks to TIGS member Joan Howe from Iowa who purchased this book on a CD and to Jeanne M. Keefe, TIGS Webmaster for formatting the data base. Bill McGrath TIGS Project Manager Clifton Park, NY
