Thanks, Gary, although even with my limited genealogical experience, I'm able to while away far too many hours.

By the way, I discovered www.ulsterancestry this morning and saw your conversation about "Katie." Hope something pans out.

I heard back from the priest at St. Michael's (Creeslough) about looking up O'Brian records. He directed me to Holy Cross Church (Dunfanaghy), so I guess that's my next stop. Have you pursued church records?

Could NDIEM please e-mail me at   Moderator comment: email address removed to prevent spamming and other abuses.  Please use the personal message system to exchange such info - you might have to post a few more times to activate this system     as I have some relevant information about Charles O'Brien, originally from Meenaclady a village in North West Donegal Ireland and who moved to Beltony after marriage - the two places are some 7 miles apart.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi,
Could ndiem contact me re information about Charles O'Brien of Beltony, Gortahork, Co Donegal?  I know several of his descendants and know who his ancestors were.

Dpoba- you have to make at least 3 posts before you can send/receive PMs (security/anti-spam measure) so if you reply to this again you should be able to contact ndiem yourself by clicking on green scroll under her user name on one of her posts.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
