    1. [IRL-CO-DONEGAL] Summer genealogy
    2. Hi Lister, Eva Gremmert posted a message about the O'Doherty Reunion in July which will feature two genealogy days. Unfortunately she did not say on which days the genealogy would feature but more details will follow later no doubt. Yours truly will be helping out on both days and also making available his recently printed free booklet - 10 Step Guide to Genealogy in Donegal. Hopefully the booklet will also be available soon on a well known website. Before that, the Derry Family History Centre is holding a "Roadshow" on the weekend of 19th-22nd June, which will consist of workshops, talks and individual tuition. Well worth a visit to the Racecourse Raod if you are in the vicinity. And also, on the same weekend, the East Donegal Ulster Scots will be running its Raphoe Festival, which, among other things, will include a coach tour of places of interest for those with an U-S family history. However, for me the highlight of the weekend will be another chance to see the amazing Kintra - a traditional music band which blends both traditional Irish and Ulster Scots music. If you haven't seen them before, have a look at the youtube webpage of their concert in Strabane: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=H17Hi42AA70 Boyd Gray http://familytrees.genopro.com/boydgray26/Boyd/default.htm
