I grabbed some Irish-related links from Megan Smolenyak, one of the world's leading genealogists, posted in a recent newsletter.

From the Huffington Post:  'Letter to Ireland Answered -- 28 Years Later'

From 'Irish America' Magazine:  Megan uncovers more on US Vice President Joe Biden's maternal branch:  The Blewitts of Co. Mayo and the Finnigans of Co. Louth http://irishamerica.com/2013/03/joey-from-scranton-vice-president-b...

And Megan shared a link to a trailer for the new HBO series 'Family Tree' from Christopher Guest and starring Irish actor Chris O'Dowd....looks hysterical.
