=D> Excellent news!! And there were questions about number of years married, how many children born alive, how many still living, etc. Brilliant! :D

Three cheers for the National Archives of Ireland for putting all this up for free! [cheers]

Hi:

I found two ladies who may be great aunts, unfortunately, they are single, and one is named Mary.

But it's more than I had about my grgrandfather's family, and Annabella's name doesn't appear on any of the family trees I have been allowed to view. So, no-one's claimed her yet. I'm hoping that with Annabella as a first name in combination with an unusual surname will bear fruit as more records come on line. :)

My compliments to the National Archives of Ireland!

The 1911 Census records are easy to use, they're fast--even with dial-up!-- and they are FREE! =D> :D
