The Common Room / Re: What Country is your research ?
« on: Thursday 11 November 04 21:52 GMT (UK)  »
Hi there! I'm researching  mostly Ireland (Westmeath)
my greatgrandmoter's parents Patrick Simon/simmons and Mary Kennedy were from there around 1850/60.My greatgrand mother name was Briget Emily end she ended up in China!! (Honk Kong) around the end of 1800 or very beginning of 1900 there she married Prosper Francis D'Agustine from Corsica but by then an Engiish citizien teacher  at the Queen’s college in Honk Kong there in 1903 was born my grand mother Olive Kathleen Simons/Simmons-D'agustine. To that end the research is very difficult because I can't find any records for the British Colonies. My grand mother Olive travelled wiyh her family all  over the British Empire ,Malta and ended up in Italy were she married an Italian  etc 
Help Pleeease!
Ciao

Married my GreatGrandfather Prosper Francis D'agostine from Corsica. My GrandMother Olive Kathleen was born In Honk Hong in 1903 they all  ended up in Italy. My Grand mother  Olive married an Italian etc etc. so we are a raimbow family.
doing some research on this web site (by the way is great!!!) I have found someting about (I hope) my
Greatgrandmother parents  Patrick Simons and Mary Kennedy of Westmeath.Seems that in county Westmeath Simons is not a very common name so If there is anybody that can help me
or if the are some relatives please get in touch.
I will be grateful forever. I ve been several times to Ireland
and is one of the most beatiful countries in the world.
