Title: Grace Kelly's Ancestral Home at Drimurla
Post by: Christopher on Sunday 14 May 06 03:43 BST (UK)

The ruins of a small thatched cottage lie near Drimurla on the shores of Leg O' Mutton Lake near Newport town (approximately eight miles from Castlebar) . The cottage was once the ancestral home of the late  Princess Grace Kelly of Monaco.  (http://www.castlebar.ie/imagemayo/gracekelly.htm)

I am alleged to be related to Grace Kelly through a Bridget Kelly, b. c. 1830, wife of a Peter Tuohy.  Is Grace Kelly's ancestral tree available anywhere?
