Greetings, I checked out the Olive tree and the sites has lots of links, that's for sure, but the free until Oct. 4th part, I was not able to access. When I tried to use their "search" I got a "request" to sign up with ancestry if I wanted to see any data. I have had no luck whatsoever when trying to find any information about arrival of my ancestors from Ireland to the Peabody/Salem area of north Boston, Mass in the 1860 - 1880 range. All the best, Mary Ellen >From cool, calm San Francisco where the sun doesn't shine because of the fog. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
