Pat, I agree with Nora. My Foxes have been in Darragh for eons. I have their rent and tax records but they do not appear on Griffiths Eval., but on the rent records in 1829. By the By they are still on that land.

How do you pronounce Darragh? I've been looking for a homeland or something similar in Ireland. The family member that gave us the clue said it was something like Denny Daw or Dewy Daw and I've not been able to find anything close to it. Understand that the Irish pronounce things differently than I might expect.
