You should be able to get through your local library if you have the right details.

Do a google and find plenty more information. MaryPat Has anyone heard of the Orphan Train? It was a PBS special some time ago about children who were on the streets of New York and were rounded up and put on a train going out west. The children were either orphans or thrown out on the streets as their parents could not take care of them. Just wondered if there is a book about this. ed _http://www.42explore2.com/orphan.htm_ (http://www.42explore2.com/orphan.htm) **************Play online games for FREE at Games.com!

Clare is kept? I'm looking for a record of my great-grandfather, John Hennessey, born about 1835 to parents John & Bridget Canny in Co. Clare. I requested a search by Clare Heritage Centre and they reported that the closest record they had was an entry in the Tulla Parish Church Register for a John Hennessy & Bridget Canny baptizing a son Michael on December 31, 1828. I looked up this record in the LDS microfilm of the Parish Register and the entries for this date were illegible. I want to have a friend in Ireland try to verify this record by looking at the original. Thanks for any help.

To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]m> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hoping someone can point me towards the correct history society covering this place. There are so many irish history societys and many cover overlapping areas so I am hoping that someone can help. I have an ancestor reputedly born in this street in 1817 with the very common surname 'McCarthy/McCartnie' so I am hoping that there is a group out there that I can contact to research this matter further. I am hoping that there may be land or tenant records for the area or (I can only hope) death records of other family members citing this address, perhaps a christening or marriage of the parents. The lass in question used the given name of Margaret and surname McCarthy and I have been able to verify through her death record a brother called Denis(sic). Realistically any information that can help prove (or disprove) her as being from the above address would be welcome. ------------------------------ Message: 5 Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2008 23:46:50 -0700 (PDT) From: zanthia1967 <[email protected]> Subject: Re: DNA To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]m> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 and OH MY GOSS worse still they might tell you that you are related to DON and that would be so scary. I for one would welcome DNA evidence that could assist with my research. Bugger off Mr Dwelling On Negativity and Moody End of GENIRE Digest, Vol 3, Issue 258 **************************************
