When a user adds additional information and / or makes corrections to one of their older posts, will the word new appear after a post in order to let viewers know that the original post was changed?

Westmeath / Search here or in a particular Irish County?
« on: Monday 27 September 10 18:12 BST (UK)  »
I have many ancestors with the names: Dunican, Boland, and Farrell from County Westmeath, Ireland. After posting several messages on the Westmeath message board, I see where several hundred people read my messages but not one reader replied to my posts. Please tell me if I am doing something wrong.:(

I tried to use the chatterbox today and it has a black background with no place to post text. Why is this so?

Westmeath / Dunigan (DUNICANS) of Rosemount, Moate, Wesmeath
« on: Wednesday 15 September 10 19:23 BST (UK)  »
When the Dunicans of Rosemount, Moate, Westmeath emigrated to America, the spelling of their name became Dunigan and Dunnigan. They are the children of Peter Dunican and Mary Boland, who were married in Tubber & Rosemount on August 1, 1839. Their immediate family with their dates of birth is as follows:
1.Martin=14thAp-1840.
2.Patrick=17thMar-1842
3.James=9thMay- 1844.           
4. Anne=1st Jan-   1847
5.Peter=  9thDec-  1849   
6.Mary= 10thOct -  1852   
7.Margaret-17thMay1855 
8.*Laurence-4thOct 1857
9.Margaret-29thAp 1860 

Please feel free to make inquiries or add comments to this post.
I forgot to add that the full address for these Dunicans was Ballinabarna, Rosemount, Moate, Westmeath. Their old homestead still exists today.:)

Westmeath / FARRELLS in Milltown circa 1818
« on: Wednesday 15 September 10 18:07 BST (UK)  »
Would anyone have any information about a Farrell family living in Milltown, Westmeath around 1818?
I am researching a John Farrell, who was born on December 16, 1818 in Milltown, Westmeath. His parents were Patrick and Ann Farrell. They purportedly moved to Athlone, Westmeath during the 1820s and the 1830s.

Westmeath / BOLAND in Tubber & Rosemount, Moate, Wesmeath UPDATED
« on: Wednesday 15 September 10 14:04 BST (UK)  »
I am researching a Boland (Bolan) family, who lived in the Tubber & Rosemount parish in Moate, County Wesmeath. I have a James Boland married to an Anne Bonney who had two sons, Lawrence born in April, 1924 and Bernard born in May, 1832. I am trying to find the siblings of James, who were born between 1790 and 1820. Possible siblings are a Mary Boland, who married a Patrick Dunican in 1839 in the Tubber & Rosemount parish and a Thomas Boland, who witnessed the baptism of James Dunican in 1844 in the same parish. The parents of these Boland siblings would be my ggg grandparents.

Would anyone have any information on any Bolan or Boland family, who migrated from Roscommon to Westmeath, circa the late 1820s or early 1830s?

Cork / Pomfrets or Pomfreys from Cork
« on: Tuesday 17 November 09 18:15 GMT (UK)  »
I have recently found out that my great grandfather from my mother's side of the family was Bartholomew Pomfret from Cork during the early years of the nineteenth century. In the states, after the 1850s, this surname was spelled as Pomfrey. I believe that the name Pomfret is of Norman origin and that many of the Normans, who assisted the King of Leitrim during an uprising in the late 1100s stayed in Ireland had acquired lands in the eastern part of Cork. If anyone would care to comment about the Norman occupiers of Cork, I would be very interested in hearing from you.
