Brenda, I use a debit card all the time, both when I order records from Ireland and in the US. It has worked just fine, so far.

According to the familysearch.org site, the LDS have filmed Westport/Oughaval baptisms back to 1845 and marriages to 1823. Diane

I am grasping at straws.  Hanora Daly is supposed to have been born March 1847 in Westport, Co Mayo.  According to her marriage certificate from St Louis Mo, her parents were Carroll Daly and Catherine Cullanne.  One of the witnesses to the marriage was a Catherine Daly.  A sister?  The 1900 census gives date of immigration as 1865. Any help and suggestions are greatly appreciated. Madeleine

Dear Meg. Thank you Thank you!! I truly appreciate your lookup on my Maguires. It was great getting the proper dates on each person. I would love to figure the town that the Maguires came from in Mayo. Any suggestions how I can go that one step further back? Again, thanks!
