    3. Genealogic Karma , Went to Miami's local FHC center, the facilities are minimal and to make photo copies of film you need to find what you want on one machine and then transfer the film to another machine to prevent the only copier from overheating. I am a spoiled child of technology and don't know what I will accomplish there...the only morning hours are 9-12 Tues. and even then I have a 2year old in tow (sweet pea that she is). At any rate, seeing Newfoundlands Probate Records from 1832 on was neat, they are typewritten very legible and maybe I'll bring the digital camera next time. I got so excited when I noticed a few early ones that mentioned Ireland placenames that the first interesting one I found I immediately put it on the 2nd machine to print, even though it wasn't "One of Mine," a copy of the 1840 Will of Michael MORRISSEY of Dungarvan, Waterford (late of St. John's Newfoundland) Well, it has paid me back 10 fold. I just spoke to my Aunt who returned from a trip to Waterford and they were able to walk the ancestral lands in Lismore very near Mount Melleray and sure enough I have an Ellen O'Donnell of Lismore married to a MORRISON. When I get a chance I will contribute the full text. Some names mentioned: mother/brother/sister in Dungarvan: Catherine, Thomas , Margaret Morrissey Rght. Rev William Abraham Rev James Murphy REv.
