Hi.
Looking through a book on Irish names,I discovered that FOLEY is McSHARRY in
Ulster.
As there is no trace of any Foleys on Aran in the available records,I wonder
if the Foleys that keep turning up are in fact the Sharrys of Inisheer.

Also found that CLARKE is CLEARY.
KILMARTIN / Gilmartin are both from the MARTIN clan
MELIA is indeed O'MALLEY

Has anyone bought the Irish Immigration CD on offer from Genealogical.com,and
is it of any use? It has the bonded passenger lists on it.

Cathy
