Here is a free place to start, John Hayes' website. He had the index on line. However, this index is not perfect, especially if you are searching County Tipperary where most civil parishes start with name beginning with M, so can't find many Connors there and that is where mine are from... http://www.

4. Re: [UK-Irish] Song my Grandfather sang [1]
Sure a little bit of heaven fell from out the sky one day and it nestled in the ocean in a spot so far away He sprinkled it with stardust just to make the shamrocks grow Tis the only place you'll find them no matter where you go Then he dotted it with silver to make it's lakes so grand and when he got it finished He called it IRELAND It has been along long time since I sang this song but that's the best I can recall And I went to Ireland once and it is green and the lakes are beautiful. Enjoy Ruth

SNIPPET: First-hand account of Guglielmo MARCONI as he awaited the signal from Poldhu, Cornwall, in a hut on the cliffs at St. John's, Newfoundland. -- "Shortly before mid-day I placed the single earphone to my ear and started listening. The receiver on the table before me was very crude - a few coils and condensers and a coherer - no valves, no amplifiers, not even a crystal. But I was at last on the point of putting the correctness of all my beliefs to test. The answer came at 12.30 when I heard, fa

Hi All, I must truly be getting old or something. I'm sitting here bawling my eyes out as I sing the lyrics glitz wrote out. Years ago my father used to sing that song. I haven't thought of or even heard it in over 30 years. My father had a beautiful voice and when he sang, he sang from the heart. I can hear him even now as I close my eyes and remember. Thanks, glitz for remembering the words. You just gave me a fantastic flashback to happy times. Maybe if I copy the words I c

HAREBELLS OVER MANNIN BAY Half moon of moon-pale sand. Sea stirs in midnight blue. Looking across to the Twelve Pins The singular harebells stand. The sky's all azure. Eye To eye with them upon Cropped grass, I note the harebells give Faint echoes of the sky. For such a Lilliput host To pit their colours against Peacock of sea and mountain seems Impertinence at least. These summer commonplaces, Seen close enough, confound A league of brilliant waves, and dance On the grave mountain faces. Harebells, k

THE QUEEN'S LAST RIDE (Written on the day of Queen Victoria's funeral) The Queen is taking a drive to-day, They have hung with purple the carriage-way, They have dressed with purple the royal track Where the Queen goes forth and never comes back.

15. Re: [UK-Irish] Song my Grandfather sang---is this it? [1]
Whenever I dream, it seems I dream of Erin's rolling hills, Of all its lovely, shimmery lakes & little babbling rills. I hear a colleen's lilting laugh across a meadow fair, And, in my dreams, it almost seems to me that I am there. O, Ireland! O, Ireland! We're never far apart; For you & all your beauty fill my mind & touch my heart. It's a dear old land of leprechauns & wondrous wishing wells; Nowhere else on God's green earth, there be such lakes & dells. No wonder that the angels love that shamrock

'It needs to be but watered,' James Connolly replied, 'To make the green come out again And spread on every side, And shake the blossom from the bud To be the garden's pride.' 'But where can we draw water,' Said Pearse to Connolly, 'When all the wells are parched away? O plain as plain can be There's nothing but our own re
22. Re: [UK-Irish] Navy Dockyards, Deptford, Greenwich, London 19th century [1]
You really do need to get into the Griffiths' Valuations for Ireland to identify where the largest concentrations of these names were living in their respective counties. It takes time but you should find a copy in any "good" library, if you have an idea of whereabouts they came from it will identify the Parish and Townlands for you. The County alone is just not enough! slan Cyril Newsome Loch Garman ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mary Simson" To:
