Hi, I am aware of a Mary Ruddy in Killasser parish... in addition, there are McAndrews in my ancestry in the same parish... do you know where in Mayo your ancestors were from? Or is that what you are trying to find out? Have you used Griffith's Valuation yet to identify the areas where Ruddys were in 1856-8? If you have a little more information that would be helpful. Also, I am willing to share what information I have on these two family names from Killasser, so you can email me directly if you would like me to do so: [email protected] .

Hi, I've been doing a lot of research on specific landlords and searching old records. Jill Dale's County Mayo Beginnings web site has information about landlords and she is adding information as she researches it. I was interested in Domvile and she has a link to the National Library of Ireland for the "Domvile Papers." So, I just looked up the Earl of Arran on the same web site and here is what I got: http://sources.nli.ie/Search/Results?lookfor=earl%20of%20arran&type=AllFields The search fields/narrowing items on the right hand side are really cool as you can sort the information by people, place, and/or time period. In case the above link doesn't translate well, here is the home page for the NLI: http://sources.nli.ie/About/Contents Also, I've been researching 'online' resources on these topics and there are several 'digital libraries' who have posted books on landlords, etc., that are hard to find. Sometimes you can download the whole book for free, sometimes you have to be a member to do so. You can also just download a page or range of pages as a pdf. I hope this information is helpful.

Hi I did some lookups for a man that was looking for people going by the name of Twig/g in Crossmolina parish several years ago. I couldn’t find anyone by that name in the Catholic register so I asked it they went by a variant spelling. He then sent me the Togher spelling and I did find some under that spelling. Not sure when the spelling changed but it did prove useful to include the variant spellings. Maybe you’ll get better results using Twig?
