Judy, even though your Mitchells were here before Griffith's, you might concentrate on those parishes that had Laurence Mitchells because it wasn't a terribly common name and, as you know, given names generally ran in families. One of the Laurence's in Griffith's might have been a cousin or nephew of yours. Portumna RC parish records have been filmed by the LDS back to 1830. Diane

thanks again, I will order the films. Hopefully I will find what I am looking for.
