Congratulations! How lucky are you? I would suggest PRONI (Public Records of Northern Ireland) List, please correct me if I'm wrong on that! I could kick myself for not getting over there when I was in Belfast in June. Next time though, I'm going to spend several days there. I'm told that you should have all your ducks in a row before you go. Make sure you know exactly what you want to look up as to not waste any precious time while you are there. Have fun! Northern Ireland is the most incredible place I've ever been! Love, Kathy In a message dated 2/10/2008 2:51:16 P.M.

Can anyone suggest possibilities for research while I am in Belfast. Thanks in advance for any assistance.
