The party is on the main list only: MCINTYRE-L@rootsweb.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ March 17th to March 20th will be our 2nd post-a-thon. In Celebration of Duncan Ban MacIntyre the famous bard and poet of Scotland. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- To make it a little different could we do a roll call with a little survey? I'd like to know what percentage of our members are doing research in U.S.A Scotland Ireland Canada Australia New Zealand Sout Africa Other! Please include this at the top of your post so that I can easily tally up the results. List more than one if you have more, but I'd like the country of your earliest known Mc to be listed first. Mine is Ireland. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------ The Clan McAteer site has some excellent MacAn Tsaoir crested shirts and pullovers on sale. I bought 4 items before Christmas and was very happy with the lot. The Canadian dollar makes it very cheap if you're ordering from other parts of the world. Have a look at the range here. http://www.ncf.carleton.ca/~cd200/mac0.html Please note that the crest is ther Irish version and not the Scottish one. I'm sure though that if there were enough people wanting a Scottish version we may be able to work something out. N.B I don't mind commercial posts on this list provided they are McIntyre/genealogy related. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- Here is a little piece of Duncan's work. The Misty Corrie of the roving young hinds is the dearest corrie of verdant ground; how lovely, lea-loving, sleek-bright, sappy, was every floweret so fragrant to me; how shaggy, dark-green, fertile, teeming, steep, blooming, full pure, exquisite, mellow, dappled, flowery, bonny, rich in sweet grass, is the glen of arrow grass, and many a fawn. for more check out ElectricScotland.com http://www.electricscotland.com/poetry/macintyre/misty_corrie.htm --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The party is on the main list MCINTYRE-L@rootsweb.com Not the other spelling variations. If you still haven't subscribed to the main list now is a good time to do it. So get those email accounts ready, and post some of your Mc, history, questions, or just say hello. After Wednesday we'll revert back to normal. >From your list administrator. Peter McEntyre (with an E).
