Hi Julie My Mum's family was also from Kerry, Ardfert area. I'm afraid I can't believe, either, that there were 100% fatalities amongst the Spanish sailors We don't get that result even now for enemy deaths during war time with modern weapons. There didn't have to be many left alive to leave some sort of heritage after nearly four hundred and fifty years. Regards Irene R on the Gold Coast -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
