Hi aghadowey

Many thanks for your reply to my query.  The information you have given me is very much appreciated, as it appears that 'Adams' might be my ancester.

Thanks again

Margot

Hi Heywood

Many thanks for your reply.  Given that information, I went on a hunt!  Info follows -

'Also in the district is the home of the notorious Hunter Gowan at Mount Nebo, as it was then called. It was later re-christened Mount Saint Benedict as the Benedictines founded a college there where many of our former politicians were educated. The college closed in the early 1920's'.

My grandfather was born there.  How interesting!

Thanks again
Margot

Hello

I have received a birth certificate (from Australia) and the birthplace of the father is quoted as "Mount Nebo, Ireland".

I have done considerable amounts of searching and have failed to find it.  Could someone in Wexford please help?

Thank you
Margot
