Hi George, Thank you so much for your suggestion. Our closest FHL seems to have rather short hours but I'll certainly give them a try. Regards, Toni in PA -----Original Message----- From: roscommon-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:roscommon-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of GWGEHoyt@aol.com Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2008 6:04 PM To: roscommon@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [ROSCOMMON] FW: McCARTHY, HIGGINS,GRENNAN Dear Toni Since your ancestor was born after January 1 1864, there is a civil record of her birth in Ireland as well as any other record you might find in church records. Your nearest FHL would have a method for you to find a microfilm for the civil records of birth for July 1893. After you order the film through the FHL system for a minor fee, then you could search it at their facilities. The film record of her birth would show who her parents were. Hope this is helpful to you. George in CA **************It's Tax Time! Get tips, forms, and advice on AOL Money & Finance.
