>Hi;
>
>Absent any old family letters or testimonials from octogenarians, the
>Search
>for Missing Friends is by far the best source to consult when trying to
>locate the places in America where your Irish ancestors and their relies
>settled.
>
>If you are fortunate to have ancestors who were looking for tertiary
>relations and friends, and sent a query to the Boston Post, this resource
>may be the only source of first hand information that connects your
>American
>family to their native Irish county and townland.
>
>This is great therapy for those Americans who are tearing their hair out by
>the roots looking for their ancestral home, and will prove even more
>valuable as time passes.
