If the meet is not in July I will be there along with Mary Merne.  It will be great to meet up with other people interested in the same subject.

Hiya Everyone,

We have 37 possible starters (if I get an affirmative reply to a message sent just now).
Lets see if we can interest at least 20 more people before the end of this month.
I will endeavour to extract a promise from Ticker that no one will be expected to push
the lawnmower at his country seat which a small grassy mound in South Dublin :D

All the Best, Chris

Great to hear from you Karen. I hope you are able to come.
Canada and Oz are represented. It would be great to see NZ and US.

All the Best, Chris

Well, I've just learned my grandfather's parents names which are Whyte and Winn and are Irish.  My grandfather was born in New York, so a little bit of American in me, but mostly proud Canadian!

UPDATE

41 may attend. Can we make it 50 by midnight and aim for well over 100 by the end of May ???
Keep going everyone. It would be great if this was attended by a large number of people. This is the
reason the event is being planned for next year. Everyone needs to plan ahead for a big event in their lives.

ravenhair, I went on the last meet in the Uk and was terribly nervous but everyone was so freindly - it's not all family history but about having a good laugh and learning a bit along the way - you will be fine - I'm hoping to go and haven't a clue how to search for any of my Irish relies.

Don't worry you will get along fine  ;)
