Question

Hi! My late older brother did the bulk of the research 50 years ago with family "vacations" to cemeteries, court houses, etc, and now in retirement, I'm picking up the baton and seeing how much further I can take it.  Our g-g-grandfather came to Indiana with his brother, wife, and 3 children sometime between 1851 (the DOB of last child) and the 1860 census. We have NO idea where from, or what ship they came on.  I have found baptism records for 3 childrens name/dates that seem to match in Dirreenatlooig townland in Tuosist; but with such common names, I can't be sure.

Welcome aboard, Michael!

The best thing to do is start adding your family branches beginning with your parents and grandparents. When you have added a few profiles or run into a brick wall, come back here to the forum and ask questions. That way other members can help.

You may also want to check out the project list. Projects are a great way to learn more and connect with fellow researchers. The project list can be found under the Find drop down menu.

Good luck with your research and have fun!
