Hello mightymum,

I know this is somewhat unorthodox ... I've found people who quite obviously live in the Strokestown locality. They are connected with the Strokestown International Poetry Festival. One of them may know of someone with an interest in Family History. An online acquaintance posted a query to a similar site .. it was not a genealogy site but one for a small Irish village which had either a contact facility or a guest book where she was able to post her message. I see little harm in going this route to get information .. my acquaintance found a living relative.

With a little bit of luck someone in Strokestown might join RootsChat as it would appear there are no members living in that part of Co. Roscommon. If there is a member there they have been keeping very quiet.

There is a branch of Roscommon County Library at Strokestown. I'm sending you a PM with a bit more information.

mightymum,

I've posted the 1824 Pigot's Directory of the Province of Connaught on the Irish Resources board.
Strokestown is included in this directory.
