Thank you very much Nancy.

One of the weaknesses of "Ireland" is the urge to make as many dollars as possible on a request for information.

When in CO Mayo we asked for information on a Michael Higgins after paying approximately 35 pds, received a letter indicating that yes, they had him back in the 19th C, but if we wished any more information that it would cost another 150 pds. Being newly married I shot the wad and we received more information on my wife's family. Took a trip to Ireland and found the same information on gravestones as well as relatives. 185 pds would have been very nice to apply to our return trip two years later.

Thank you very much for your answer to my question.
