Hello Jan and Sylvia

Ireland  ::)  Ann Gamersway  - it's like looking for a nail in a coffin.  No pun intended.  Not much info for research in Ireland.

Cheers

Hi everyone,  :)

All my research has been in Merthyr Tydfil, Glamorgan, Wales.
Kent, Lancashire, Middlesex, Cheshire England.
Dunedin, New Zealand.
Victoria and New South Wales, Australia.

I have one ancestor - Ann Gamersway born Ireland.  This one i have given-up on!  ::)  Researching Ireland - what a nightmare!!!!!
