We were in the National Archives in October but went in without "a plan" therefore we spent ages looking for bits and pieces re both our families and didn't get very far. I'm hoping to get over in the near future specifically to visit the archives. This time I'll try and be prepared beforehand.
Just for your interest my major quest has been the hunt for Denis Treacy and Anne Hannon my great grandparents. I think I mentioned them to you before so sorry if I'm being repetitive. They had my grandfather Stephen Treacy baptised in New York in 1873 but thats all I know. According to one of my uncles Anne Hannon was part of the Fitzgerald (Kennedy) family. However I can't get any info on the two of them to either prove or disprove that. Denis was born in Ireland around 1840 and although I've found one or two matches I don't have enough to prove one way or the other if they are the right Denis............
