Dan, If one's interest is not only in checking for names but also in reading about the slaves from Ireland I will mention a book I found at the lending library in the Irish Cultural and Heritage Center in Milwaukee. The Title is To Hell or Barbados, The Ethnic Cleansing of Ireland. It was written by Sean O'Callaghan. It was published in 2000 by Brandon. Mine is a Brandon paperback. "The back covers states: Between 1652 and 1659 over 50,000 Irish men, women and children were transported to Barbados and Virginia. Yet until now there has been no account of what became of them. The author's search began in the library of the Barbados Museum and Historical Society and its files on Irish slaves. Sean O' Callaghan for the first time documents the history of these people: their transportation, the conditions in which they lived on plantations as slaves or servants, and their rebellions in Barbados."
