I am attempting to plan a trip to Ireland in July and would like to ask some of the "seasoned travelers" if they would offer some suggestions on how I can make the most of my visit. I have always had problems with geography and would welcome any suggestions on where to stay, where I may locate vital records & cemeteries and any tips that you may have picked up thru your travels. My lineage stems from Offaly: Ballinree, Parsonstown & Muiniagh, Tullamore - Children of: BROWNE, Margaret & MOLLOY, Michael MOLLOY, Laurence John, Norah Annie, Catherine, Rody, Bernard, Anne, Margaret, Mary Bridget, Timothy, Patrick and Thomas I know that a few of the above are buried in Durrow Cemetery but where is this? Ballinagar, Philipstown - Children of: DUNN, Esther & GALLAGHER, Daniel GALLAGHER, Catherine (Kathleen), Mary, James, Daniel and possible Nellie? Thank you for any suggestions and opinions, I feel I am crawling in the dark on this one! Denise Parsons McHenry, Illinois [email protected]
