Sligo / Old RC church in Templeboy parish
« on: Sunday 01 August 10 23:56 BST (UK)  »
Hello everybody,
I am looking for any information regarding an old RC church in Templeboy parish located on an estate (possibly the old Hillas estate). This church was the one where my ancestor got married in 1816 and another was baptised in 1827, so before the current RC church was built around 1870. The old church, now in ruins, is located near a river or stream and totally overgrown. If anyone knows what church I am talking about, I would appreciate any information you may have about it!
Thanks!

Canada / LAC searches
« on: Wednesday 28 April 10 15:56 BST (UK)  »
Is it me or did LAC recently change the way to search their records? I found new things about my ancestors I could never find before....  I think they are digitalizing new records.
Can someone confirm that or is it just me who did not know where to look (which would not be surprising :))

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / passenger list too bright
« on: Wednesday 28 April 10 01:40 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone,
Is there a way to "darken" this page from a passenger list for me so I can read the line I am looking for (Joseph Bradley at the top)?
Thanks!

« on: Saturday 27 March 10 21:45 GMT (UK)  »
Does anyone know where to look to find anything about Miss Brennan's home in Montreal where Miss Yates of the CCPS would take the home children?  I am trying to find out what happened after a child was brought to Canada.

Any help would be great!
