O'Neill -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Ulster Historical Foundation lecture programme March 2010 Date: Sat, 06 Mar 2010 11:01:52 +0000 From: AncestryIreland.com <[email protected]> Reply-To: AncestryIreland.com <[email protected]> With St Patricks Day approaching many people think about their Irish and Scots-Irish ancestry, and the Foundations forthcoming lecture tour in the USA (13 to 20 March 2010) is a great opportunity to celebrate your Irish connections. We have listed below the details for the venues of our six locations in Wayne PA, Lancaster PA, Raleigh NC, Naples FL, Lincoln NE and Bethpage, Long Island NY. If you are unable to attend we would ask that you help us promote these events to the widest possible audience by passing on the information to your contacts or local societies. We should like to thank everyone who helped in setting up our March programme. To our members/contacts outside of the USA we apologise in advance that this information is not relevant to your area. We would add though, particular for members in the UK, that the Foundation is keen to undertake more engagements in 2010 and a letter on this subject will be sent out shortly. For members in Canada, the Foundation is willing to speak to any group who might consider hosting a programme. You might be interested to know that Research Director, Dr William Roulston, has been invited to speak at a conference in the autumn, and could include other venues as part of that trip. We thank you for your interest in the Foundations work.
