Visit To Wicklow & Dublin
« on: Wednesday 23 January 08 20:52 UTC (UK) »
HELP!
 I am visiting Dublin with my niece for three days Sunday 27th - Tuesday. I need advice where and what to do in my family search. I emailed the Wicklow History people  about a visit to do some research but have had no reply as yet. We will be hiring a car for the visit.
My Grandfathers (John Shannon) Birth cert states he was born at Ballycurry , Ashford, Wicklow 1872. His fathers (Patrick Shannon) profession was gatekeeper. I think my Gt Gt Grandparents (Patrick & Kate - nee lawler) originated from Clonegal. circa 1845/50.
Any advice about which are the best places - cemetries etc would be greatly appreciated - My family are RC.
Cheers
Bren

Hello Bren,

I'm sorry I've just noticed your post. How did you get on when you were in Dublin and Wicklow with your niece? Did you get any assistance from the staff at Wicklow History?
