His remains will be taken to Calvary Cemetery for inter- ment. Limerick papers please copy. NOTE: One portion of this cemetery is in Brooklyn with the other portion of it being in Queens. In 1852 the Common Council of NYC passed a law prohibiting any more burials in Brooklyn/Manhattan--so based on the date of death this person is likely buried in the QUEENS portion of this cemetery. Most of the burials in the Brooklyn/Manhattan portion of the cemetery were of poor Irish children under the age of 7. The very first Shanahan in my family line to be born on USA soil [Patrick Joseph Shanahan 17 Mar 1862-16 Aug 1862] is buried in the Queens portion of the cemetery.

Susan, rather than send actual copy I've emailed a link to you that should allow you to open this census on Ancestry.com (irregardless of whether or not you are a member). Not sure how long the link is good for so make sure you make a copy of census for your records (Anceestry.com won't let me send you a link more than one time). Happy Hunting!

Hi ho! Hi Ho! Off to Ireland cyberspace I did go. I spent a penny and found so many but alas nought was mine. I couldn't resist going to peek, explore and see if I could find the elusive Kennedy O'Brien and his misses Catherine Hayes on their wedding day. Tweren't no good BUT hey, I sure did enjoy the journey and now my husband won't have to buy me a birthday present because I just paid for it myself, lol. I need to let IFHF know I liked the journey but can't afford to do it as often as I would like when it's not possible to ask for husband and wife in one search. I know it is a fledgling site and changes will come. They are already listening and dropped the prices. Now ladies and gents here is a list of what I found in case someone out there picks up my fools gold and discovers its their mother load.

Hello Everyone, I have been searching through Limerick history at Roots Web and have come upon a book I would be most interested in reading. It's full title is: Recollections of our Native Valley: A History of the Parish Loughill-Ballyhahill and the Owvaun Valley, by Gerard Curtin, Published by the Loughill- Ballyhahill Heritage Society, 1996, vi, 408 p. ISBN 0-9528263-0-5. I am thinking this book is out of print...is there anyone who has a copy that would be willing to do a look up for me? And if not, where might I find a copy? Regards, Liz --------------------------------- You rock. That's why Blockbuster's offering you one month of Blockbuster Total Access, No Cost.

I am not alone in this or in how I think. I wasnt trying to start an argument but I feel some of your comments warrent a reply. I think your comment if we cant afford it to give it away, did you mean it up? Some of us arent quite so lucky to be able to waste money. I guess you can afford to, I cant so to tell me to give up on something I too enjoy tells me you think that this is a hobby (for lack of a better word) for only people who can afford it. and the heck with the rest of us...
