My Days as a Pure Son of Wexford are Over!
« on: Sunday 02 October 16 08:59 BST (UK) »
I have worked on developing my direct ancestral lines for over 20 years, and until this week, had managed to identify 26 ancestral lines. 100% of these lines, or in other words, all lines to-date were from Wexford. I wonder if this is some sort of record?

However, a few days ago I discovered a 27th line, the Currans. Today, I managed to trace this Curran family back to Hillbrook, in the parish of Carnew, Co. Wicklow So, my family and  I are no longer 100% pure native sons of the model county!  This will take some mental adjustment!
