Dear Catherine, Jeanne & Sharon, What interesting conversation took place whilst I was sleeping! Catherine, like you I am awaiting with much anticipation of the final details for the Clare FHC 2007, it will be so good to hopefully unravel the mysteries that surround my Clare ancestors and meet other like minded List members. Jeanne, I am going for a burial, so my ashes will take a lot longer to "breakdown"(if at all!!!). But of course this event will not take place until well into the late 2000s. I owe my children that. No doubt about you Jeanne, you are so fast off the mark contacting the people Sharon kindly mentioned to you. It will be interesting to hear the outcome. Sharon,I would treat your family history information with great respect. Jeanne and I can sit in our rocking chairs and draw straws as to who gets what section.We will by that time be far too fragile to fight!!!!!!!!!!!

That could translate to 40, easily, including interested spouse/partners/siblings who would tag along with the listmember. Plus our committee and any locals, I'd say we would be looking at easily 60 people, and that's a very conservative number. I haven't even attempted a head count on the Rootsweb Clare message board, which includes posters who may not even know about this mailing list of ours. > > I think we are all in agreement that the numbers are high enough to warrant a family history conference, but the issue of a localised task force is still contentious. I've just sent an email to those NE Clare people who have only recently set up the website Sharon C. just posted about, www.aughty.com, and I hope to hear from them soon, as there is a meeting going on as I write this in Ennis between conference committee members. If we can get enough man- and womanpower behind the details of the conference, and if we can then feel confident enough in being able to pull it off physically and logistically to square away adequate financing, we're in like Flynn.
