Dear All. To everyone out there requesting Look-Up's I have been meaning to mention this for some time now and I think now is the time. (Please see the original message at the end) Before we can do Look-Up's for anyone in Ireland, we do need a County name and/or a Parish name and/or a Village from those requesting the name of their anscestors. Otherwise, you are going to receive hundreds (sometimes thousands) of names of the person/s you are searching for from all over Ireland. I already have had my wrist slapped for sending too much data via email plus it takes longer to upload when there is a lot of data to send. Despite Ireland been a small piece of land in comparison to the USA and Australia there was at one time a very large population in the country prior to the Famine and it's not true that everyone knew everyone. Maybe in the local Village or Townsland people would have known each other, but certainly not in the larger towns and cities. So my suggestion is that you try a little research yourselves before hand and try and make life a little easier for everyone. Please remember that we are amateurs in genealogy and we do this happly in our spare time, plus we are not charging for this service. I still get a great buzz when people reply saying that they have found a long lost ancestor because of some small amount of info that we as amateurs were able to provide.
