Thinking about that blog post about using DNA in genealogical research. It's a complex topic. Have just moved across the country and have a lot going on, on top of a disability that limits the amount of typing I should be doing.
Hi Ryan; Sorry I've not thanked you sooner for info on moving to Ireland.
Unfortunately cannot read any more of message after you state whatI guess is quite a hassle.Hate to bother you but can you explain how I can e-mail my photo to wild geese web. I know I should know how but I just sent my photo to Gerry Regan and he has e-mailed it to me. So it is on my computer. Now What? I need classes in all the technology associated with computers. Thanks for any help.
Hello Ryan . Unfortunately I have deleted that email you sent me ; asking a a photo of me as a child. I cannot find any ; nooks and crannies all searched. I had a flood in my home 12 years ago and it is possible that they were lost at this time sorry .
Kelly may be emailing you about the same issue as I emailed this info to her when I realized that I had deleted your email .
How ever I have to say that you made good job of the blog -many thanks
Just to tell you that in my research for my Book - That's Just How It Was - I found out that there was a clan called 'The Breffon O' Rourke's ' who were preconceived as Leicesters and other Counties ; King and Princes of Ireland . Do not know when and how they died out .
However they important thing is ; we are possibly descendants of that clan - now there's a thought !!
Ryan ; Spoken with Kelly ; Gerry ; Gerry has advised me to 'ask' people to buy my book! So I am taking his advise.
So my question is ;;On some of my blogs you or someone [think it was you ] put a link to where my Book can be bought from i.e Amazon ; Kindle ; Berthams; Inghams ; barnesandnoble / Gardners Wholesale Books UK .
Now then ; on other blogs it just has the above mentioned places where my book can be bought.
So my question is ; how do I or you!! get to put the 'link' that is on some of the blogs . Help
