    1. [ULSTER] Announcement
    2. Don Kelly
    3. I apologies to those who receive more than one copy of this announcement. Greetings Listers Established IGP counties of Meath and Westmeath are available for adoption by an experienced County or Special Projects Coordinator. They can be adopted separately, but they have so much in common, with common sources of records and repositories, that one County Coordinator should administer both sites. The volunteer should live in the county, in Ireland or the UK, or at least had ancestors who lived in the county. That will give you a genealogical interest in the websites. For genealogists who are also interested in Ireland history, the Counties of Meath and Westmeath once composed the ancient Province and Kingdom of Meath. Some may recall that the King of Meath didn't play well with his neighbors, so his Kingdom was eventually absorbed by the Kingdoms of Leinster and Ulster. There is much bloody history there and records enough to keep one busy transcribing for years. To visit the counties: Meath http://www.rootsweb.com/~irlmea2/ Westmeath http://www.rootsweb.com/~irlwem2/ If interested, visit http://irelandgenealogyprojects.rootsweb.com/ and follow the instructions. Thanks all.....this is an unusual opportunity for some lucky person.
