hello dora,
i am tracing my family tree also and have discovered that a lot of my ancesters came from westmeath.
i just found a cousin on here the other day,
names adamsons from moate, nolans from glasson and my ggrandfather married a catherine berry.
oh by the way there is glassan and glasson in westmeath, it can get confusing at times.
we might be able to help each other out, i live about 30 miles from that area and was there about 6 months ago.
best wishes for now,
cyril walsh.
