If you know other Hesters in your family came from Mayo, I'd suggest looking at the film for Kilgeever parish (LDS film 0926224), which begins in 1844, as 8 of the 10 Hesters listed for Mayo were in Kilgeever. The Griffith's index is not complete, but neither are the IFHF listings. Leave no stone unturned! Diane Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
