Armagh / Re: GRAHAM family of Cos. Down & Armagh
« on: Sunday 20 February 11 22:15 GMT (UK)  »
Lord help me, sorry, have been having a large number of "senior moments" this week - actually runs in the WILSON family, grandfather, mother, aunt and three cousins all had or have dementia of some sort. I have not looked at the Sources in any detail yet, just glanced at them, but will go through them more thoroughly, thanks, Jim.

Hi, thanks, I do use WorldConnect for leads. I especially want to hear from descendants who are outside of Quebec, but can trace their line back to Quebec. The majority of my data is for Quebec with Michigan ranking second. Especially interested in copies of obits. My database consists of about 37.000 names. I only carry on the male lines of TREMBLAY not female. It is considered one of the largest families in North America. Thanks, Jim.

As I said I am interested in any additions or corrections to the posted material, I hope to hear from relatives who may have some additional info.  I know it is an early time period and that I would have to hire a researcher, but perhaps some relative has already done that and is willing to share, hate to reinvent the wheel if it has already been done. At this point I do not have any extra money to hire a researcher, so am just fishing (get some whoppers sometimes), thanks for your concerns, Jim.
