As you will see two of my greatest heroes in Irish history and Scottish history are represented in the video snipits from the films made of their lives. Michael Collins fought for Ireland to be an independant free state and was the major catalist to that end. Rob Roy MacGregor was was one of the great heroes to his people during the Jacobite times. One of my favorite actors, Liam Neeson, plays both heroes to great effect. Liam Neeson is really and truly Irish and is a man of great stature as was both Michael Collins and Rob Roy MacGregor Genealogy Today

Conas ta' tu'? As most genealogists know genealogy today is becoming more and more hi-tech. Today genealogists are finding definite links to ancestral lines of old by using DNA forensic science to prove an absolute connection to their lines. I received an exciting email from someone I had never heard from before. She is a direct descendant of my ancestor Johnston Elliott through his son, Green Lee Elliott, from his second marriage to Susannah Lucianah Brown . I am a direct descendant of Johnston Elliott through his elder son, Austin Elliott, from his first marriage to Susannah Austin. I am the gr-gr-gr-grandaughter of this son. She is the gr-gr-grandaughter of Green Lee Elliott. Her cousin, which means that he is somehow my cousin also, H. T. Elliott has been tested for DNA cheek sample. He now has been shown to be descendant from the Elliots of Midlam Mill. I knew through my own research and from the book 'Elliotts of Casey' written by Jo Touchstone, due to the fact that my research merged with her information, that I was of this line of Elliiots but to get the DNA confirmation is very exciting. Score one for an amateur fly-by-the seat of her pants genealogist. Yipee!!! feichfidh me' ar ball thu', Slan, Sinead

Conas ta' tu'? I love my Celtic heritage. The Irish/Scots being the strongest in my genetic make-up leads me to lean toward those although I have Welsh and English thrown in there also. I know those of you who love celtic music have heard of the show, with accompaning CD, Celtic Woman. It is some of the most beautiful music I have ever heard. Now let me introduce you to Celtic Thunder. It is a new show, with accompaning CD and DVD, by the same producer as Celtic Woman. It is comprised of 5 gentlemen ages 14 to 40 something. They have the most incredible voices individually and corporately they harmonize beautifully. If they come near you they are a must to go see. I have tickets for 11 October when they are going to be in Cincinnati and am so pumped I can hardly wait. Please take time to listen to a little sample of their performaces that I have put on my page. Enjoy! feicfidh me' ar ball thu' Sinead

When I bought a new computer three years ago all my genealogy files got lost in the transfer of data from one computer to another and I had to start over. The ConnellyConleys are the only family I have finished so far. Will post as I finish the others. Slan, EnidPage 1 of 2 • 1 2 Next |
