Larry, What a tremendous amount of research! Interesting to follow the path. Makes me think my 5 days in Ennis in May won't be near enough to find my kin when all I have are a few names, one birthdate & no definite places other than Co. Clare & where I could find Patrick FITZPATRICKS in Griffith's lists. Also sure makes me wish you were related to FITZPATRICKs or McNAMARAs. So, I will plan on enjoying the scenery, the music & whatever else comes my way! Jo Banks ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
