Dear Tricia.

Thanks for your help ,I have another surname on my family tree now with my great grandmother been called Toole.Now I have three sets of great Grand parents all with an Irish connection which makes it harder to trace.With your help now I have an 1832 date which takes me nearer that 1700 mark.Thanks for your help.
