Greetings to All I am Owen Keith Patrick Walsh Stephens, and am looking for any and all information on the Walshes of County Wexford. I am aware of their defense of the country against Cromwell and subsequent theft of all lands and titles and banishment and diaspora to Canada, USA and Australia. Alas, the insanity which has been spoken of in these pages (as a thread), caused my mother to leave not one whit of data about us. I do know that a Patrick Walsh lived in Rockford, Illinois, US, in the 1800s, had a general store, and that he married a Mary Lynch. That he had three offspring: Maude, Henry and Nora. But I seek prior information. I believe we eneterd through Nova Scotia, Canada. And I realize I have a long long way to go to find the truth. But can anyone please help? I would return the favour to the group as I become more expert at this thing called geneology. Thank you all, and - Cede Miel Falte! Owen (Eoghan)
