(Mine were famine immigrants.) So, even though I knew the very town they were from, I could get nothing. They did make some suppositions and I am sure they did some research, but it made me reluctant to send the same amount to East Galway to search my Tuam-area roots. This discussion group has given me about as much as I could hope to get from the Heritage Center. I can't believe it's 150 Euro to look at 3 books, though. Is there a decimal in there somewhere? That's crazy! Happy hunting!
