Lime Rock, Connecticut first comes to mind but there may be other US locations of the same or similar name connected to them which was interpreted over there as their place of origin. None of the 34 post offices in Leitrim has a name similar or that could be broadly interpreted as such. There's also no other location that's even a possible interpretation. While there's a possibility it's County Limerick or Limerick City, the absence of any documentary connection as yet in the US for such a location would really preclude it at this point as a research location in Ireland. The 10 or so emigrants and their children's civil, church and other records (cemetery, wills, naturalisation, etc) in the US will hopefully provide the necessary links to the family members' town/townland, civil parish and county of origin location(s) here in Ireland. Regards. Eilís O'Hara Ireland
