Question

I would like to see suggestions for One Name studies for Walsh. Can you recommend any? Also would there be any interest in starting an Ancestor Project for Walsh on Gedmatch?

Answer 1

There is a Walsh Name Study at
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Walsh_Name_Study

However, its Coordinator was last on WikiTree in November 2019.

Come on, Ros, be kind. I am on Wikitree almost every day and available for anyone who wishes to contact me to join the group. 2019? factually incorrect.

Please note the date I posted this:
Feb 26, 2020
over a year ago.  At that date, your last entry on WikiTree was 15 November 2019, when you certified for pre-1700.  You have been on WT several times since then - but back when I posted, it was 2019.

I was not 'factually incorrect'.

Answer 2

I am interested, but it seems like a major undertaking which would require a lot of time and help. With Walsh being the 4th most common surname in a country using only about a half dozen men's names, my experience trying to find records for Irish immigrants has been frustration.
