Hello Listers, Especially wanted to comment on the post made by Sheila regarding Irish records...... Thank You Sheila, and I do so wish your post could be read by those on all other Irish lists. I have been researching for a long time and have to tell you I have never seen the information regarding Irish records as well put as you have posted to this list. Your post is free of any bias, balanced, and most of all in the context of the History of our Ancestors time. Best of all, it is sensible! Even if one knows the specific County in Ireland that our Ancestors were, it is and has been for myself and many others quite difficult to find records with many gaps in what is available. Thank you Sheila for listing what is not available and also fully listing what records do still exist. Judith Mullally Boatman Researching: MULLALLY
