Hi,

I have all the information on Michael Finlay, painstakingly spent over 12 months at the National Library of Ireland looking for it (on weekends)

Have discovered :
- the building he was working on
- exact events of arrest, and his words in police interrogation
- employers address (and types of work they did)
- co-accused (John CONLANS convict and free history)
- Michaels Convict history, and employers history
- etc

Hi Ian
it's me, Bev, Good to hear from you. Would really like to read all the information relating to Michael. I had him "put away" for a while & doing some work on my husband's family. I know you seem to have a problem with my email so what is the best way to see the information? I can give you my snail mail.
Wait to hear from you
regards
Bev
