Hello list! My name is Christina Hunt. I have been asked to take on the duties of listowner by Carol Hepburn. My own interest in County Laois is the Delaney family that lived there in the late 1600'. My Thomas Delaney went to Baltimore MD where he died in 1739. Quite a lot of the modern Delaneys/Dulaneys in America descend from Thomas. Please share your own research interests with me and the list so we can get to know each other! Feel free to get in touch if you have any problems receiving this list. Also, I would like to thank Carol Hepburn for her care of the list. She has done a fine job. Kind regards, Christina Ninah@ix.netcom.com http:www.rootsweb.com/~irllex
