Hi Geralyn I am researching Keyes in County Limerick bordering on County Tipperary. My keyes family were in Castleconnell County Limerick and Birdhill County Tipperary and later in Limerick City. Do you think there might be a link to your family of Keyes?

Andrew Thank you for your most informative reply re the floods & Tipperary relatives. My Heffernan family settled in Tenterfield in 1850. William was an 'exile' a pseudonym for convict, her arrived on the 'Havering' Nov 1849 transported for perjury. Among the other prisoners on board were John Heffernan Jnr. & Snr. They were transported for sheep stealing. This father & son also went to the New England settling in Uralla. John Snr eventually brought out his wife and daughters and their families. This family were from Knockavilla TIP. My William married an Ellen Lordon, no registration and had 12 children, all born in Tenterfield. I have been in contact with Father Paul Bateman and have his book 'The Heffernans from Clonbonane'. Many years ago my husband & met Tom Heffernan from Junee or Temora, he was the then President of the Shire, my husband was in Local Government at Coffs Harbour until his death. My William was baptised in Tipperary Town, as were some of his siblings, others were baptised in Anacarty/Donohill. Kerry Heffernan descended from John Snr. and I have tried to match up our Heffernan family without success. Maggie Heffernan in Port Macquarie NSW

PATRICK HEFFERNAN --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I will cite here some details I have found in a biographical note about a Patrick Heffernan of the Temora area in southern New South Wales which appeared in a centenary book entitled "Temora Yesterday and Today". The book was published in 1980 by the Temora Centenary Historical Book Committee. The singer Marie Narelle`s father John Ryan died at Temora in 1881. His will made that year which was admitted to probate appointed an executor identified as -- "Patrick Heffernan of Clear Hills near Temora Station Proprietor". That man was the subject of a biographical note set out at pages 80-81 of the Temora centenary book cited above It was said at page 80 -- " Patrick Heffernan of Clear Hills Temora and Millbank, Junee was born in Melbourne in 1838. His father, William Heffernan owned a station property 'Sunday Creek' near the metropolis of Victoria ...... Patrick`s education began at St Francis` School in Melbourne and later at Lucerne House, Heidelberg ...... Leaving school at 17 years of age, he remained on his father`s property for two years until the glamour of the gold fields lured him to seek his fortune ...... " The biographical note then referred to mining activities in Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales before turning to pastoral matters. The note said Patrick Heffernan returned to the Temora district in 1867 and shortly later bought a holding amounting to 50,000 acres, which he named "Clear Hills", on which he ran sheep, cattle and horses. The note said he married Miss Catherine Teresa Raleigh of Boorowa in 1868. The book said at page 81 -- "Relatives of Patrick Heffernan and early settlers in the Temora district were James Comans of Combaning Station ( 19,000 acres Lease No. 31 ) and John Ryan who married Kate Comans and whose daughter Marie won fame as a singer. She had a beautiful soprano voice and assumed the name of 'Marie Narelle'." -- A.F. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HEFFERNAN AND COMAN OR COMANS FAMILIES ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Catherine Mary Ryan became a professional singer under the name Marie Narelle. Marie Narelle was born into a family prominent in pastoral activity in the Temora area in southern New South Wales. Marie Narelle`s maternal grandfather James Coman`s brother William of Moruya married one Mary Dwyer in Ireland. Mary was William`s second wife. She came to Moruya with him. The first wife was Catherine Rawley, mother of Moruya identities William and James Coman. Marie Narelle`s maternal grandmother was Catherine Heffernan, who had brothers at Moruya named Edmund and Patrick. Those people`s parents were Roger Heffernan and Margaret Brown. The Heffernans were from County Tipperary. It seems likely they were of the town or vicinity thereof of Golden. The Comans too were from County Tipperary. William Coman junior owned the grazing estate "Bumbo" a little to the south of Moruya and appears to have overlanded stock to Victoria. His brother James acquired the 890-acre Moruya farm "Glenduart" -- on the north side of the river -- originally owned by John McLean, head of the New South Wales convict administration for many years. McLean went into bankruptcy in 1845 and "Glenduart" was seized by creditors. James Coman married a widow named Margaret Brown in Sydney in 1851. Margaret`s maiden name was Fogarty. She was from Lloydsborough near Templemore in County Tipperary. James Coman acquired "Glenduart" in 1854. Two brothers of his wife became Moruya settlers. The Moruya identity Edmund Heffernan appears to have been born in about 1808. He married Honora Ryan. I have a biographical note on the brothers Edmund and Patrick Heffernan which says Patrick came to Australia in the early 1830s, was married at Goulburn in 1836, was at Braidwood in 1845 and came to Moruya in 1851. The note says Edmund came to Australia in 1850. Marie Narelle was born at "Combaning" sheep station near Temora in 1870. She was a second cousin via Heffernan to the professional singer Eva Mylott, the latter being paternal grandmother of the actor Mel Gibson. -- A.F. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I will send shortly some material which overlaps with something I submitted this morning addressed to Maggie Heffernan and Elizabeth Walker. It seems reasonable to suppose that Rawley and Raleigh were the same name. I am sending two pieces of work mentioning Heffernan and Coman or Comans families. The Moruya Coman family`s name is sometimes seen as Cummins. The following material also mentions people named Brown, Dwyer, Fogarty, Mylott and Ryan. Regards, Andrew Fogarty Casino N.S.W. Australia

Hi Margaret, I'm afraid I have more questions than answers! The first question I would ask is, were your Keyes Catholic? I know of a group of Keyes from more west in Tipperary and from Limerick who were members of the Church of Ireland going way back. They do not seem to be connected to the group from east of Templemore that I am tracing. My Keyes (and most of the other Keyes who settled in the US at Paterson, New Jersey) were Catholic. They seem to have moved west into Tipperary around 1800 from Rathdowney Catholic parish in County Laois. Many Keyes appear in the Rathdowney Catholic parish registers in the mid-to-late 1700s. Those families used the distinctive first name Morgan, which later appeared in use among Keyes families on the Tipperary side around Dromard in the early 1800s, then was no longer used by them after that. Are there any men named Morgan in your Keyes families? Although the Rathdowney records began very early compared with other Catholic parishes in the area, there is an unfortunate gap from the 1790s until 1839 (about 2 generations for most families) that makes it almost impossible to trace early Keyes families forward in time. And the records on the Tipperary side (Templemore/Clonmore) don't begin until the early 1800s and also have some gaps. So I think the parish registers are a limiting factor if we try to connect Keyes families from the two areas using records. Of course, there could still be some connection, back in the early 1700s or earlier. How early are the records where your Keyes lived? This would be a wonderful use of yDNA tests if we could find some male descendants to participate. Or perhaps some representative Keyes males are already involved in yDNA testing. Since I have no candidates from my own family who could participate, I haven't followed the Keyes yDNA group very closely. I know of some male Keyes who are descendants of families from the Laois side of the border. However, I don't know if they would be interested in yDNA testing. Lack of records does not allow me to determine if they are related to mine or not. But they have the same migration pattern - from the Tipperary/Laois border area east of Templemore to Paterson, New Jersey. There were so many inter-related Keyes in Paterson that I suspect there is some connection there. I have never encountered any Keyes from Limerick in Paterson, only Keyes from along the Tipperary-Laois border (many of whom associated with one another in Paterson) and one Protestant Keyes family from County Fermanagh that did not associate with the Catholic Keyes families in Paterson.

March 12th 1870. Novel Case of Abduction. At the Tipperary Petty Sessions, on the 4th inst., a man named Timothy Donovan, residing at Cullen, was charged with attempting to abduct or carry away by main force a young woman of prepossessing appearance, named Catherine Humphries, Kilkoran, on the evening of Sunday, the 26th ult. A man named Kendal O'Brien was charged with aiding and abetting in the commission of the offence, but the name of the third party, for whom the "prize" was intended, did not turn up during the trial. The evidence of the young woman was to the effect that on the day in question, on coming out of a neighbouring house, after her parents, from whose tender care she was well-nigh being rudely snatched away and going to miss. Donovan, the principal defendant, accosted her on the road, and immediately afterwards took her up in his arms, and attempted to carry her away with force. A short distance up the road she observed a covered car, and Kendal O'Brien beside it on a bay steed of presumably swift qualities. Not wishing to have her hand and heart, and further--what was thought to be the real cause of obtaining for her such rough attention--her fortune disposed of in this summary manner, she screamed out in a way that only young women under such circumstances will scream, and soon gave her Lothario (by proxy) to understand that he had caught a Tartar. During the scuffle that ensued she boxed his ears soundly, and she used a key which she held in her hand with such effect on her assailant's head and face that after a time he was glad to relinquish his rash project and beat a hasty retreat. The Bench on hearing the evidence, sentenced Donovan to one month in prison. The case against O'Brien was dismissed.

>From the Nenagh Guardian. 4th June 1877. At Newport yesterday, a man rode through the village on a bull. A crowd congregated to witness this novel sight. Private Walls and Feehan, of the 99th Regiment, stationed at Templemore, have each been sentenced to 21 days in prison with hard labour for the larceny of 1s 3p worth of whiskey. They are at present in Nenagh Gaol. The Magic Pen. Requires no ink, black, blue, violet or red. Price 3p each. These pens are highly recommended. Constable Ryan of Puckane brought up an old man at Nenagh Petty Sessions, having apprehended him at half past one in the morning, in the act of stealing hay from Thomas Rochford, Esq. Mr. Fleming asked if Mr. Rochford prosecuted. The Constable said he did not, but hay stealing had become to common. Mr. Rochford who was in court, said that he did not want to prosecute the offender. Mistaken identity. The Pat Ryan, Portroe who was given down in our last edition as being send to gaol for 24 hours for drunkenness on Friday, should have been Pat Ryan of Newtown, who had been out in India soldering and suffers from sunstroke. The death has taken place at Baltimore, Maryland of Patrick Healy, a native of Cloughjordan. June 4th 1894. Born on May 31st, at Springfort Cottage, Nenagh, a son to the wife of Mr. Christopher O'Brien. Married on May 21st at Puckane Catholic Church, by the Rev. Father Gavin, Patrick Keane to Elizabeth, second daughter of the late Mr. James Murphy, Ashley Park, Nenagh. On Monday evening at about 5 O'clock, Acting Sergeant Mahony arrested a man named John Ryan, of Cormackstown, a farmer, on a charge of having a short time previously dangerously wounded a young man named W. McGrath by stabbing him with a penknife in the side of the throat. It appears that previous to the occurrence there had been a row between the parties concerning an account when Ryan, as alleged, drew the knife, opened it, and stabbed McGrath in the throat. The prisoner was brought before Colonel J. Prendergast, J.P., and remanded in custody till next petty session. The injured man McGrath although progressing slowly, is still very weak. On Sunday last a girl named Mary Quinlisk was playing on the green convenient to the old house at Brookwatson, when she perceived smoke issuing through one of the windows. She steadily approached the window and observed three young men inside. She ran and apprised Mrs Cullen who is caretaker of the park, and both returned to the house. Just as they entered they saw one of the men with the carcase of a fowl in his hand, which he had lifted from the embers as soon as he heard the footsteps approaching, and then threw it towards the rear of the house. The little girl observed that it was one of her mother's ducks, whereupon the young man replied that it was a water hen or crane. Some other observations were made, but who should chance to come upon the scene but Constable Essleston, who having heard the youngsters story, proceeded to search the premises, and found two or three carcases of fowl, which were half roasted. He arrested the three young men who later in the evening were taken in charge by a party of constables under Constable Culleton. They were remanded to Petty Sessions but were allowed out on bail. 7th June 1875 At Thurles Petty Sessions, Mr. W. Carry, Thurles applied to have two children admitted to the Industrial School at Thurles. He found them wandering about the street on the previous evening. They were admitted. A lad named Delaney, aged about 9 years, died at Garryard, Silvermines, from a surfeit of unripe fruit. An inquest was held before Mr. Meagher, Coroner, when a verdict to the above effect was returned. It is with the most unfeigned regret we have to record the death of that much loved and respected officer, John Anderson, Esq., late County Inspector of the North Riding of this county. He died at the residence of his son-in-law, John Exshaw, Esq., Ballyhaden, Borrisokane, surrounded by his afflicted widow, daughter and grandchildren. He served for a long period in the RIC, and throughout his life, he was distinguished as a fine and polished gentleman, possessed of noble, upright and honourable feelings. He was an ornament to the force. His only son Major John Anderson, of her Majesty's 19th Regiment, is now serving in India. John Jones, Esq., RM, who has been for nearly forty years stationed in the Thurles district, has been removed to County Cavan. The vacancy caused by his removal will not be filled up. The death has taken place, at her residence, Castle Street, Nenagh, at the ripe old age of 81 years, of Mrs Honora Cahalan, mother of Dr. Cahalan, of Nenagh and Dr.M.J. Cahalan, Thurles. Births. At Gortmore Cottage, to the wife of Christopher Keys, Esq., a son. At Boveen House, Sharavogue, Roscrea, to the wife of Frederick Hayes, esq., a son. To the wife of George H. Jackson, Esq., of Raplagh, Nenagh, a son. May 28th, at the Bank House, Nenagh, to the wife of John Morton, esq., a daughter. H.D. O'Callaghan, Sub. Inspector, now of Strabane, County Tyrone, and formerly of Nenagh, has been promoted from 2nd class to 1st Class Sub. Inspectorship. This step increases his pay from £169 to £225. Mr. O'Callaghan joined the force in October 1861. On Thursday evening, a man named John Heenan, living at a place called Grange, near Lorrha, met with a melancholy accident which terminated fatally on Friday. Heenan who held a couple of acres of land possessed some hives of bees, and on Thursday two took flight and pitched on an ash tree near the residence of Francis Palmer, Esq., Grange House. Heenan got a ladder at Mr. Palmer's, and missing his hold, he immediately fell to the ground, a distance of about 16 feet, on his back. He lingered until the following day, when he died. He was attended by Dr. Boxwell, who from the first looked upon the case as hopeless. Heenan leaves a wife and four children to mourn his loss. 7th June 1886. Mr. George Power-Lalor, of Long Orchard, was summoned by Constable Costigan at Templemore Sessions for having discharged a loaded gun on the public road at Templetuohy on May 25th. The accused was represented by Mr. Arnold Power, Solicitor, Thurles, who put in a plea of guilty on his behalf. As the Magistrates were unable to perceive any mitigating circumstances in the case, they imposed the maximum penalty of ten shillings and costs. At Roscrea Union there was letter from the local Government Board stating that the expenses incurred in sending boy Walsh to Paris for treatment by M. Pasteur for hydrophobia must be charged in accordance with the chargeability of the boy as an inmate of the workhouse. A resolution was unanimously passed asking the Local Government Board to allow the charge to be put to the entire union, as the expense was for the public good. At Nenagh Guardians it was reported that a pauper named Bridget Quilligan had left the the house on the previous Friday, to bring home a child of hers which had been under treatment in St. Mark's Hospital, Dublin, and repeated by the Doctor to be cured. Neither mother nor child has been heard of since, She had on the workhouse clothing. Yesterday the Sheriff's representative and his assistants, accompanied fifty members of the RIC under District Inspector Royce, Roscrea, and Major Waring, RM., evicted Daniel Quirke, Publican and Farmer, Silvermines, from a dwelling house in the village and from land he held at Lahid, Cooleen, Falleengower, and Clonnihasha. Quirke owed £9-18-0 rent for the year and a half, with £13-16-10 costs. As expected there was a large gathering of sympathisers at the eviction. The Silvermines Pipe and Drum band was in attendance, and the Rev. Mr. Cunningham delivered one of his usual speeches. The evicting party then proceeded to Windygap, and disposed James Murphy from part of the lands of Cooleen South and Coonagillach. Murphy did not live on the land, He owed £18 rent for a year and a half, with £3-16-0 costs. The gathering here was but a small one, in fact it was not what could be called a sympathetic demonstration. The only assault was when some fellow from the gathering struck Thomas Tobin, the landlord's caretaker, with a stone on the head. The injury is not serious. Possession having been taken the Sheriff's party returned home. There was a great deal on rain on the day. The reason of such a large force of police being in attendance, is that the law should not be defaulted by intimidation or obstruction. A short time ago the Queen's writ was set at defiance in Portroe, on account of the number of persons assembled and they being led on by some Catholic Clergymen. At Nenagh Petty Sessions, Matthew McGrath , summoned James Gleeson of Garryard for wilful misbehaviour on the road at Kilmore, and interfering with free postage while travelling on a car on the night of May 23rd. McGrath had a second summons against Gleeson for assaulting him at Silvermines on the same day. James Gleeson had McGrath summoned for assaulting him on the same occasion at Kilmore. Mr. Nolan appeared for McGrath, and Mr. Gleeson, Solr., for James Gleeson. It appears that while the parties were travelling home from Nenagh, had a sort of racing competition for a gallon of porter when the scrimmage took place. McGrath's evidence gave rise to a great deal of laughter, he admitted he struck Gleeson in return, and also that when Gleeson came to the Silvermines to him, he used abusive language, when he gave him a stroke of a sod of turf which he happened to have handy in his hand. Gleeson broke into the house and he had to have turned out. They had a few boxes before he could turn him out. Witnesses were examined on both sides, following which McGrath's case was dismissed. A half crown and costs were ruled against McGrath on account of the sod of turf.

Maggie and Liz -- Casino seems to have fared fairly well in terms of storm effects Minor flooding was predicted for Friday afternoon. I am in a high position. I have the impression that the peak of the river surge fell short of what was expected. I will take the opprtunity to set out here some genealogical and general historical information with a Tipperary connection after referring to my area`s share of the late eastern Australian weather difficulties. There has been a lot of rain here. There has been fairly solid wind -- not bad enough to be a big worry. I appraised the river level from Webb Park near the Irving Bridge on Friday afternoon. I am at South Casino about 50 feet above the bridge. Stopping at Webb Park involved only a minor detour on the way into town to clear my box at the post office. I did not look anywhere else. I have not been here long. I am from an inland place in southern New South Wales. I am not closely familiar with the north-east. It is terrible to be flooded out of your home. I went through that experience a long time ago at a place a long way from here. I was amazed when I first saw the official marker which is displayed on a post in Lismore`s Molesworth Street indicating the level of the 1974 flood. The bridge to which I have referred seems to be named after the early pastoralist and politician Clark Irving. I think the structure I crossed on Friday is a higher version of a bridge of the same name which was swept away by the monster flood of 1954 -- the year of the Queen`s marathon first visit to Australia. Clark Irving was a big name around the northern rivers in his time. I think I have seen it said that he eventually returned to England and lost his shirt through speculation. I have seen a photo of Clark Irving which I thought was of impressive quality. I think I may have seen the photo in Mrs Lyn McSwan`s history of the Maclean area. The town appears to have been named after the Surveyor General of 1861-62 Alexander McLean. Alexander McLean was a son of one John McLean who headed the New South Wales convict system from 1838 until 1855. John McLean lived at an estate called "Birch Grove" in the Balmain area on Sydney Harbour. In 1838 he was granted a holding at Moruya on the south coast which he called "Glenduart" and developed as a farm. The deed of grant said the land had an area of 900 acres. Later documents say 890. McLean obtained the property at a reduced price because of his position as a retired army captain. He was from Scotland`s Inverness area. His son Harold came to be head of the New South Wales prisons system. There is a Trial Bay connection in Harold`s career. "Glenduart" was on the north side of the Moruya River. The river formed the southern boundary of the "limits of location" extending from Sydney which were proclaimed by Governor Darling in 1829. That is why the early farms in the Moruya area were on the northern side of the river and the grazing runs lay to the south. Occupation on the south side was illegal until the introduction of a licensing system in 1837. >From 1848 grazing leases were issued. John McLean went into bankruptcy in 1845 and lost "Glenduart" to creditors. The property passed in 1854 to James Coman ( sometimes seen as Cummins ) from County Tipperary. John McLean had been an absentee proprietor having a son as manager. James Coman and his wife soon moved from Sydney to "Glenduart". "Glenduart" remained in the Coman family until the 1890s. James Coman`s wife Margaret Fogarty had two brothers at Moruya. The parents are identified as Michael Fogarty and Jane Murphy. The Moruya Fogartys were from Lloydsborough near Templemore. The men -- Martin and Michael -- came to Sydney from Ireland on the ship "Empire" in 1853, naming Margaret as a relative residing at The Rocks in Sydney. It seems that Margaret paid 12 pounds under the remittance regulations. I do not claim those people as mine but a link seems likely. Some brothers named Carden came to Moruya after landing from the ship "Eliza" in Sydney as immigrants from Ireland in 1855. Their mother was an Ann Fogarty of Oldtown, Templemore who seems very likely to have been a sister of my great-great-grandfather. The Moruya Carden brothers` maternal grandparents were John Fogarty and Mary Morrissey. Their mother seems to have been born in about 1797. It seems she emigrated in about 1857 or 1858. She went to Victoria. Regards, Andrew Fogarty

Andrew, you mentioned that the Carden brothers' mother was Ann Fogarty of Oldtown, Templemore, whose parents were John Fogarty and Mary Morrissey. Oldtown is west of the town of Templemore. Perhaps the names Fogarty and Morrissey are too common in the area for there to be a connection, but I have come across some people with those names in my research of Keyes families who lived to the east of Templemore, in the vicinity of Clonmore and Dromard. There was a large cluster of Keyes families living east of Templemore on either side of the Tipperary-Laois border, many of whom emigrated to the the US and settled in Paterson, New Jersey, about 13 miles west of New York City. They all seem to have been related to one another in some way and were probably related to my ggg-gmother Ellen Keyes (b. abt 1800), who also came from that area. I have been tracing all the Keyes along the Tipperary-Laois border, trying to figure out connections between them. As part of that process, I have collected some records that mention the names Morrissey and Fogarty. My ancestor Ellen nee Keyes resided at Clonbuogh (south of Clonmore) with her husband Daniel Kavanagh in the 1820s-1840s before emigrating to Paterson, New Jersey also. Griffith's Valuation shows a John Butler leasing land (lot 7, Clonbuogh, civil parish Killavinoge, Co. Tipperary) from the Earl of Carrick and renting houses on it to Patrick Fogarty, Daniel Kavanagh, Mary Doolan, Catherine Dwyer and John Maher. There are 9 additional listings in Griffith's for Fogartys in Killavinogue civil parish, including Catherine (Ballysorrell Big), Michael (Clonmore), James and William (Dromardbeg), Patrick and William (Glebe), Anne (Gortnagowna) and Denis (Shanakill). Andrew, are you familiar with Fogartys in this area, or is this too far east for you? The name William Fogarty also appears in the 1824 Tithe Applotments for Killavinogue in Clonmore and also in (Killavinogue) Glebe. There was a Keyes-Morrissey marriage in the Catholic parish of Templemore-Clonmore, and several Morrisseys served as baptismal sponsors in the same parish for their family and for the children of Martin Keyes and Fanny Reddin, who emigrated to Paterson, New Jersey before 1850. I posted those records to the list in 2006 - that post appears here in the archives: http://listsearches.rootsweb.com/th/read/IRL-TIPPERARY/2006-08/1155485346 in case anyone on the list is interested in Morriseys living around Templemore.

The Moruya Carden brothers` maternal grandparents were John Fogarty and Mary Morrissey. Their mother seems to have been born in about 1797. It seems she emigrated in about 1857 or 1858. She went to Victoria.

I am wondering if anyone has access to a newspaper story from late July or early August 1889. I am looking for information on a murder that took place in or near Ballyduff of Kings County on July 31, 1889. The Parish/District was Roscrea. The victim was one William Hanlon, age 39. Cause of death was hemorrhage of the femoral artery due to a gun shot wound by a revolver bullet. Thanks, Mary Anne

I would be interested in talking with both of you about Gooley as I am playing round with that name in Tipperary for a friend.

Hi all, Just thought I would add my McGrath line in case anyone connects. My great great grandfather James McGrath was born in Turraheen, Tipperary and baptised in 1836 in the Parish of Clonoulty/Rossmore. He was the son of James McGrath and Judith/Johanna Davern, of Clooneyross, and one of 10 known children born to them. He arrived in Queensland, most likely in 1852 with other McGrath relatives. He married and had 2 children, before his wife died, with his baby son dying a couple of months later. He remarried and had 7 more children. Sadly he died of a broken back in 1887 leaving a young family. I have visited the area in Tipperary twice and last year was lucky to actually find the townlands of both Turraheen and Cloneyross. With the help of a lovely local of Cloneyross, Harry Bourke, who graciously spent several hours with me visiting graveyards in out of the way places and then taking me to Turraheen where we visited what is possibly the old McGrath family home, now owned by the Ryans. Michael Ryan's mother was a McGrath. It was so very exciting standing where my ancestors lived so long ago and discovering so many McGrath and Davern graves. Any connections anyone? Anne M NSW, Australia. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Friday, 22 May 2009 9:10 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [IRL-TIP] McGrath's - Gooley,Heffernan Hi all ..
