Pat - Thanks for the offer. Looking for TAYLOR and SULLIVAN. And with common names like that it's hard to pinpoint anyone. Both families cames to the US in the 1830s, I think. No clue as to where in Ireland they camne from, so any help is appreciated. Thanks Bill Brizzell To: "NY-Troy-Irish-Gensoc-L@rootsweb.com" <NY-Troy-Irish-Gensoc-L@rootsweb.com>, "NYRENSSE-L@rootsweb.com" <NYRENSSE-L@rootsweb.com>, Albany list <nyalbany-L@rootsweb.com> Message-ID: <48517EC0.8050701@pacbell.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed I am going to Ireland in the Fall to search the baptism and marriage records for this RC parish, near Tipperary Town and in the Cashel and Emly Diocese. These records have been closed to the public until very recently. Since there are a number of emigrants from this parish that settled in Troy, if you send me your surnames, I will gladly get the info if it exists. Records start 1810 and go to 1880 with about a 6 month gap from Oct 1838 to beginning of 1839. All I want is the surname, no other info as I will gather all info on the surname because you never know how they will fit in your family tree puzzle. Please post it to this list so it will be in the archives for searching. -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA http://www.connorsgenealogy.com
