6 Jul 02 Agree 100 percent! Have been to Ireland six times. Have researched in the archives in Dublin, the Heritage Centers in County Clare, Leitrim and Donegal. I have visited many graveyards searching for ancestors. I have also met with a number of pastors who were very cooperative but they have too many parishioners to take care of (believe me even the Irish are experience a shortage of priests) and not enough time to research Americans requestors expecting instant gratification to their questions.
