it does sound a bit like there is a sort of W in there somewhere!

it's the switch from the O sound (really the U) to the A sound - same sort of effect as Mrs Doyle of Father Ted fame with her 'Ah Go On, Go On, Go On..'

Heywood,

Great first result from Co Roscommon concerning Roan, Cunningham research, paid fee and  research ongoing.  It was worth the trip down there. Most Mayo RC records are no good for 'An Gorta Mór' victim emigration, later on they are ok. How do I get onto a Roscommon topic page on this site. I am useless at this internet lark?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

just scroll back up this page to the headings. Just above 'Mayo' you can see 'Ireland General'.
Click on that and it shows all the counties. Just scroll down then for Roscommon.

Good luck ;)
