Roscommon Herald archives.
« on: Thursday 22 November 12 17:30 GMT (UK) »
I was informed today that the Roscommon Herald Archives have been digitised, and are available to view in person at Boyle, and Roscommon town Libraries, and others in the County.
I would suggest however, you contact your Library to see if they have them to view.  Not sure if there is a cost involved though, but I would think it would be minimal..

The archives go back to 1859.

Steve. :)
Ives, Stevens, Allen, Smith, King, Wooster, Elwood from Monks and Princes Risborough, Aylesbury, Wendover, Great Missenden, Bledlow, Horsenden, Saunderton, West Wycombe, High Wycombe, Lacey Green, Longwick, Illmer,  Hughenden, Prestwood, The Kimbles, Haslemere, Bradenham, Aston Clinton and more......!!  Plus a whole host of Oxfordshire areas.
Graham, Pimlott, Burgess from Cheshire and Lancashire area.

Hi

I have a distant relative by the name of Eleanor Nowlan.

She was sentenced in Roscommon Ireland for 7 years and was sent on the ship 'John Bull' which landed in Sydney 25-7-1821.
She was a native of Roscommon, town servant, 20 years old, pitted complexion, dark hair.

I would like to know if there are any newpaper writings about the trial, if so, how can I see them??

I would really appreciate any help.

Cheers
Mary
