I just wanted to mention that there was a much appreciated side product of the wonderful work that the PPP researchers and transcribers are doing. Michael Purcell just sent me, off-list as it isn't Carlow information, an extensive Bowles research paper done by a family history researcher in Limerick. Apparently it was discovered by a PPP researcher while connecting up some of the Carlow family names in the PPP papers. 90% of the information is new to me which is fairly remarkable as I've been gathering Bowles in Ireland information for over 10 years now and and it also gives me a connection to a previously unknown fellow Bowles family researcher in Ireland. This group's efforts have been phenomenal. The information that has been transcribed and posted on this list is truly invaluable and then secondary benefits such as this side discovery and the networking and forum discussions that develop following so many of these postings makes this forum and overall project possibly one of the best on the Internet! It's very much appreciated. Tom

yes Tom, a great find indeed, "90% new to you" is music to my ears, your comments are very much appreciated by me and my "helpers". Funny but we have to thank Unthank family research for leading us to this discovery !, mick On 1 June 2012 00:45, Tom LaPorte <[email protected]> wrote: > > I just wanted to mention that there was a much appreciated side product of > the wonderful work that the PPP researchers and transcribers are doing. > Michael Purcell just sent me, off-list as it isn't Carlow information, an > extensive Bowles research paper done by a family history researcher in > Limerick.
