Hi John,
I'm so glad you responded! I had tried to find you via an apparently old email address, and I was hoping you would stumble back upon this site one day.
My mom and uncle are thrilled you have responded. I went with them, along with my sister, to Ireland this past August. We met with Lawlor descendants; the people we met live in Glasson (the Irwin family); apparently, Margaret Lawlor had a sister, Julia, and these people are her descendants. A land map helped my mom and her siblings to find them. They have made several trips to Ireland since 2000.
How exciting this is! I wish we could have known about your family reunion in July...we would have made every attempt to join you.
We visited the very same cemetery in Tubberclair; to our knowledge, the church on the same grounds is where Michael and Margaret Nally were married on February 14,1859.
I'm sure my uncle and my mom will respond on this site, also.
My email address, if it comes through on this site, is katcop13@optonline.net.
Looking forward to your correspondence!
Kathy Ryan
