Natasha, My grandfather has a nephew who lives in Clane. When we went to Ireland in 2001, all I had was a forty year old address to go on. the address is Richardstown, Clane. My son and I drove out from Dublin on a Saturday evening after walking all over Dublin during the day. My husband and daughter-in-law thought we were on a wild goose chase! They would not come. We drove out through Celbridge, where my grandfather was baptized, and finally passed a building on the side of the road with a sign that read "Clane Farm Machinery." That was the only clue that we had entered Clane. We drove a little way to a gas/petrol station with a little mini mart like we have in the "states." I went in and asked the girl behind the counter if she knew the Cribbins family and where they lived. She said she did not, but she called out to a lady picking up a few groceries and asked if she did. Sure enough she did, and she had us follow her after she finished her shopping: back up the road to a house we had passed less that a mile away! It was definitely the house of my grandfather's nephew Francis and his family. We met most of his family right then and there as they were just returning from the "games." Then they called another cousin who insisted that we come over to her house. So one of his sons led the way and we followed to her house. We met many of her children and grandchildren. Another day, from their directions, I found the house of another cousin and his wife who are living on the property where my grandfather Walsh was born in Straffan. Their house is newer, but they gave me an aerial photo of both his house and the one of our ancestor's which was next to it at the time. What a treasure! Then they called a nephew in Dublin who came out the next day to meet us. In all, I actually met nineteen cousins and got tons on genealogical info. In the same shoebox with the old photo of the houses were all of the memorial cards of now deceased relatives with lots of dates and burial information!
