Hello Larry (and other listers) from chilly, winter's-in-the-air Wisconsin, US, This is marvelous....I only just joined the list on Friday and already have spotted familiar places mentioned by those wanting to 'mentor' and help others. Specifically, Sharon in Georgia, US, included my home town/county of Manitowoc, Wisconsin, as a place she is researching. My MULLINS roots (Patrik married to Bridget 'Biddy' Barry) were from Inagh, Kilseily, Broadford Parish, Co Clare, Ire., having emigrated to Manitowoc in 1849. I am looking forward to hearing what people are interested in researching and what other resources are available that I haven't yet used. Thanks (everyone) for your work and contributions. Oh....and for you 'locals'...I'd love for you to provide translations for your salutations....always wanting to learn a bit more of the native tongue, Jayne Mullins Madison, Wisconsin ----- Original Message ----- From: Larry Brennan To: IRL-CLARE-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, November 05, 2006 4:04 AM Subject: [IRL-CLARE] Fw: Clare Roots Society-World Links.

Larry, Your audience may find something of interest on WWW.OAC.IE Unfortunately we have to make a small charge for access to the archive, as a contribution to the financing of our larger project, but, for anyone interested in County Clare, we believe there is good value for money. Our archive (the contents, and contents pages of each volume, can be inspected free) includes the full run of Dal gCais - The Journal of Clare, Parish Histories of Kilfarboy, Kilmihil and Kilmurry Ibrickane, Some works by the writer Tomás O hAodha and a (uniquely)full listing of headstone inscriptions of Kildimo Graveyard (near Miltown). Coming shortly will be a full listing of Killernan inscriptions (parish of Kilmurry Ibrickane) and also of Freagh (Kilfarboy). Also forthcoming are translations of the work of the Clare poet Micheál Coimín and the Ennistymon CBS Jubilee annual for 1974. Any publicity you can give for our project will be much appreciated. By the way, you didn't give a date for your talk, which I hope to attend.
