>Another little tid-bit. I just received a note from Tim O'Neill. Tim is a >professional musician, plays the piano beautifully, and his CD's and Tapes are >available at most J C Penny Stores. Anyway, I happened to purchase his CD >called "the Meeting of the Waters" He recorded it after a several month visit >to Ireland. I have also heard Tim O'Neill play and discussed the O'Neall heritage with him about 18 months ago at a Minnesota Irish Genealogy Society meeting, I sent him a pile of stuff on the Great O'Neall and etc. We talked about Shane's Castle etc, but it sounds like he comes down another line of O'Nealls than that of Shane's castle. RE: Reunions, sounds like lots of fun to me, because of my job and my limited vacation time, I would love to come if it is within 3 or 4 hundred miles of where I live, which leaves in most of Iowa and lets out North Carolina which I would dearly love to go to. Otherwise I will have to miss it. I have enjoyed all the research stories. I had never heard the name O'Neall in conjunction with my family until I got started researching, once I got to a certain point on my Chapman line, I was also an O'Neall, I was lucky enough to run into Jill at that point and have felt pretty connected since.
