Peggy claims it hard to find Doyles, and Redmonds and Kinsella's but could that not be said of any name we are researching in Ireland be it Gorey or Dublin, or even in Tasmania Australia. If you dont have access to the sources one has to rely on anyone willing to take down a few extra names when they are looking at microfilms which of course any of you located near an LDS center can hire and use, and do just that write a few extra names down and share with these lists. And to decide that the name Faulkner is not prolific is to the person not researching that name, once you begin the search the name appears in every nook and cranny, and under every rock and tree, and everyone has one for a neighbour. Now in fact for my two cents worth never take up the research of sorting the surnames in to famly groups, like Murphy, Jones, Toole, Newsome, even Weadick, because the moment you begin this task then it becomes an mammoth undertaking to locate and sort them to the correct family groups, and then of course there are the variants of names that must be moved into the category of search as well, and on it goes............... But I digress I must get back to doing the lookups that are needed. Cheers and take care-enjoy your weekend wherever you are Cara
