Hi Valorie, DAR is very interesting with lots of McQueens but it hard for me to find if any are related to me. My lot emigrated to Liverpool and down to London from Mochrum one strayed to Dublin where my father was born. So very hard to know where my great uncles Albert and Frederick W McQueen Liverpool went from there and if they have any descendants in the US or not. Cheers, Patricia nee McQueen, S.F. Calif. USA for many years now. ----- Original Message ----- From: Valorie Zimmerman To: McQUEEN-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, July 04, 2005 12:29 PM Subject: [McQUEEN] Exciting database with lots of McQueens, some MacQueens This from last week's Rootsweb Review: New DAR Online Index.
