I have tried the http://www.postoffice-counters.co.uk/navbar_postcodes.htm site several times over the past few days but keep getting this message: "There is a temporary network error preventing the download of your file" I was just wondering if anyone else has encountered a similar problem with this site? I have Netscape Smart Download and don't know if the problem is with Netscape, although I haven't had any problems downloading anything else except on this site. Any comments would be appreciated.

http://www.mayo-ireland.ie/Geneal/Cavan.htm This is a Co Cavan site and has links to other simular sites for other counties in Ireland and their research centers. Does anyone know if the search they do here for $40 US is worthwhile? Anyone used their services and if so what did you think of the results? ~Kathy

The Royal Mail UK now has a great site for looking up names and address. http://www.royalmail.co.uk/paf/ British Telecom also has a great site for looking up names and address. http://www.phonenetuk.bt.com:8080/bin/w4p1 J Alan MacArthur [email protected]

Hi, My name is Rod Long and this is my first posting to the list.My family and I moved to Adelaide, South Australia from Liverpool in 1973. I am researching James LONG - no birth date or spouse yet. His Sons John 1840 died Liverpool 1897, David 1850 died Liverpool 1885 and John's son born 1864 Ireland died Liverpool 1884. Can't find John's first wife in Ireland but he married Caroline HIGHTON in Liverpool in 1868. Caroline died in 1884 and John married Elizabeth Ann PININGTON around 1890. Their children were John (my grandfather), William and Annie Letitia. Any information appreciated, Rod _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Looking for information on a McBeth (various spellings) family, especially 1700s and before. Several are mentioned in the Spinning Wheel census (1790s) of Ireland as living in Strabane (County Tyrone). Said to have come from Scotland to Ireland in the 1600s. Also lived on Islay in Argyll Scotland. Thank you, Jeff Wallick

Hi, I'm looking for information about William James Howard and his wife Sarah Louise Jackson-married June 1866, lived at I believe at Lyllian, Co.Tyrone. Latter lived at what they called Farlough Hill, I think Farlough was near New Mills Co. Tyrone. If anyone has information about these people or where they lived I would appreciate it, thanks Paul at [email protected]

My sister recently came across a reference from a book entitled From This Year Hence, written by a George Tavender. He referred to emigrants from Great Britain who landed in New York in the early 1800's to a rather cool reception; settled briefly in and around Johnstown, NY, and petitioned the British Consulate for advice. Apparently, the consulate suggested they investigate Canada, and several immigrants were dispatched to Canada to investigate. In 1819, 24 wagon loads of immigrants travelled by land to York County, where they settled. We have ancestors by the name of King who landed in New York, and subsequently settled in York County. Family letters refer to their buying a wagon and horse and preparing for a journey. Unfortunately, the excerpt from the book cited no sources for the historical information regarding this migration. We have ordered the book, but would love to hear from anyone who may have knowledge of such a migration. An interesting note is that this trip took place in the winter! Thank you for your time, Marg
