Thank you so much for that information. If you have any ancestors you think came to the Troy NY area please go to our website, The Troy Irish Genealogy Society _www.rootsweb.com/~nytigs_ (http://www.rootsweb.com/~nytigs) We have transcribed many local records and hope that we can help some people break down brick walls. Under our resource section we have "An Irish Act of Kindness" where many volunteers will do what you have just done for me.
