I agree. Now that you have piqued my interest I'll dig a little deeper for more info on that family. My connection is through my aunt, a descendant of Joseph TOORISH (1888-1942). He emigrated to Toronto in 1909. For your entertainment (literally), Bernie TOORISH, son of John McConalogue TOORISH (1894-1970), was the lead singer of The Four Lads, a quartet that had huge success on the hit parade back in the 50's and 60's. > Would you like a copy of the letter? I'd love to have a copy, especially so I can share it with any TOORISH cousins I discover. Send it to bntaylor(at)shaw(dot)ca. Cheers!
