Hi Pat, I totally agree with your sentiment on researching Irish ancestors. I can't even find my grandmother's birth in Wexford and she was only born at the end of the 19th century. I been looking for her birth for years and years. Yet, I have amassed so much info on my Pembrokeshire gran and the families and intermarried into her family of Feild and still the leads don't dry-up. I can go on and on - and do!! I do wish I could do the same with my Irish ancestors. Regards, Rose
Hi Rose I've managed to trace my father's Irish ancestry (County Longford) back to the early 1800s which is quite an achievement. (The local rectors never got around to forwarding their parish records to Dublin as they should - thank God!) Ironically, if I could only trace them back a couple of hundred years more I would probably end up back in England!
