Fiona- Two items for you: 1. The entry I sent you 3 Aug re: Lizzie Shiel was taken from the Birth Index for Ireland LDS film 0101063. The film numbers for earlier years are: 1886-87 0101061 ` 1888 0101062 They may be ordered from the Mormon (Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints-LDS) Family History Centers. My notes only include entries for the Swinford area and do not have any which match "Lizzie's" sisters. 2. An Irish Shiel cousin is married to a Joseph Morrisroe and is researching his family. They live in the Swinford area of Mayo. I have some notes on Morrisroes which I am accumulating for this cousin. If interested I will share these entries from Irish indexes with you. They are nearly all from these areas: Swinford, Boyle, Castlereagh.
