Hi We have orders to Alameda, CA - have been there before. In fact, that is where I met my hubby and we married :) I found the info I have from the following: Kerry County Archivist Tel: +353 66 7121200 Email: archivist@kerrycolib.ie They are very helpful and kind and it does take them a bit to find info. I am going to try and get to the Casey Collection when we get there. Will let all of you know what I find. It will be next summer/fall though. Marge, Did any of my info coincide with yours? Seems like we have some similar surnames there. Did any of my info I posted ring a bill with anyone? Merry Christmas to all! GiGi in Chesapeake, VA but not for long!
