Hi List, does one still write to Joyce House for a certificate or has the address now changed to that one out in the 'sticks'? Kind regards, Michael McAllister

Hello, I am looking for the address of the caretaker of the Finglas cemetery, apparently Finglas cemetery is about three miles down the road from Glasnevin, and is a much older cemetery. Can anyone help me please. Rita

Hello James HENSHALL, Linen Merchant, born 1729 died 1824, he had two children, a son James HENSHALL born 1754 and a daughter Eleanor HENSHALL born 1760, his first wife died sometime after 1760, as he remarried in 1774. I am trying to find the name of his first wife, but have hit a brick wall. He was apparently a prominent member of the Anglican church and lived in the Finglass area, and at one time lived on Linenhall St. Dublin. The only thing I can think of is that I try and find out where his first wife would have been buried, does anyone have any suggestions to where I would look, and how I would go about getting burial records. I live in South Africa. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you Rita [email protected]

Hi Charlie, In our tree we have Hugh King ~1840-1900, and Mary Boden (?-bef. 1895), who lived in Dublin city. As your name is King and Bowe is a bit close to Boden, I thought I would ask if you recognize these names. Thanks! Gay

Some of you may already know of this site but for those that are looking for immigration to Canada, go to: www.researchfamilyhistory.com/ for some names of people that migrated to Canada from Ireland. Your family's name might be there.

I have been chasing my Hardinge ancestor of Dublin for 20 years and have only just found the answers. Bur now I have another mystery. My Gt Gt Grandfather William Hardinge married Sarah Mansell [from Limerick] in 1808 in Dublin. He worked 37 years at Dublin Castle as a Treasurer. There Son Frederick Hardinge came to New Zealand in 1872 with his wife Sarah Pope and children. They bought with them a portrait of Robert Christopher Maunsell and a framed poem of the Death of Gen John Maunsell which was written by Ann 40M and a Col of the Dragoon guards. These two things were much Treasured by them and I have found these two gentlemen on the Maunsell line. A Line that goes back to Muddlescombe in Wales and from where a side branch goes back to Limerick.. What I can't find is how they are connected to Sarah Maunsell from Limerick, my GT Gt Grandmother. Any suggestions or help gratefully accepted as this one has me baffled.The two spellings seem to be interchangeable. Jeannette NZ

Dear Gay, many thanks for your update, hopefully, oh hopefully, I will be able to pinpoint my grandfather Thomas.

Hi List, I remember some time ago, a mail concerning the transcribing/name indexing of the two Irish censuses, and project between the Irish Archives/Records Office and the Canadian Government. Does anyone know of an update of how they are progressing please? Kind regards, Michael McAllister <still looking for a 1-2-year-old granddad Thomas McALLISTER in the censuses for Belfast!>

Hi Michael, The information on progress seems to be the same. This from the Irish archives site: The first phase of the project, Dublin City and County 1911, is to be launched in Autumn 2007. We had hoped to launch earlier, but rapidly changing technology has meant that we are revising the architecture of the site, and this will lead to a small delay.

Nova Scotia Grows: People from other lands came as well. An Irish leader, Alexander McNutt, brought several shiploads of Irish immigrants to Nova Scotia and many more came as the years passed. In 1773, the ship Hector brought the first of many Scots to Pictou, New Glasgow, Antigonish and Cape Breton. Ever since, generation after generation of Nova Scotians have taken great pride in their Celtic heritage and today there is great interest in Celtic music in Cape Breton and other parts of the province.

Hi Sharon, Thanks for the info. I remember taking a tour of Grosse Isle in Quebec a couple of years ago. Wow, there was a lot of Irish that died there on the ships during the Famine. I can't see that they are related, but I actually saw some Bowe families from Ireland who had died there. Charlie King gg grandson of William Bowe born 1825 in Dublin??

Hi Sue, Because of the cheap transportation to Quebec, Quebec was a great attraction for the Irish on their way to the US or even to stay for a while in the Eastern Townships of Quebec or the area south west of Quebec City.
