As admin of this list I include this entire thread to make a point: 1. When surnames are listed, please list them in CAPS. 2. When the thread changes, please change the subject line. 3. When a message is answered, please trim extraneous old massages from the bottom of the post. We all know these things, but I forget once in awhile as do others. We can make this very fine list even more useful to researchers. Thanks everyone, and everyone have a great day.

Who actually destroyed the public records at the fire of Dublin Castle. I have heard it was the IRA because it was a symbol of Protestant Ascendancy and held the Land records. Now I am hearing it was the British. WHAT IS THE TRUTH? or was it just an accidental fire?

If one has any transcriptions of records; census et cetera WHERE can one post these for other people to use the resource. County Longford on rootsweb has its own record site for voluntry contributions, but none of the Free Leitrim websites appears interested in this type of data. I have various records of the Leitrim Militia from the French Wars [1793] to 1832. These are useful to tie up with the Tythe Applotments [1833] and Griffiths Valuation 1857. They contain names of young soldiers across all religious communities who were say 18 in 1793 onwards. And can be tied up with Chelsea Pensioners [the injured during the Napoleonic Wars]. Many I have found have left the Militia after a short experience to join regular forces, others upon discharge have settled in Canada. This can be viewed at Public Records Office, Kew, near London.

HI Nancy, I do have a Rose Keegan born to Patrick Keegan and Bridget Duignan in 1874. Although I have no death date for her, I do not have a marriage record for her either. Also, her brother Francis Keegan Married Rosa Anna Foley in about 1920. NO marriage record in Cloone but the children were all born there. This Keegan Family is from Annaghmacullen (Faughill) in Cloone. My husband's direct ancestor is Patrick and Bridget's son James. He immigrated to the states in about 1885 and before 1895 when he married Mary Keegan of Srannadarragh, Leitrim. As for the other names to mention, I cannot connect them with records. What date range are you looking in? Becky
