Do you have old letters relating to Ireland and consider them of interest?
I will publish any transcribed letter here to show to the Irish around the world. An image of the letter (full or part) would add interest too.
I'd be particularly interested in letters from 1914-1922 (WWI, The Rising, War of Independence & Civil War).
Any interesting letter will be published. Covering any topic. Letters from abroad to Ireland and vice versa would be most welcome.

If you don't know where you are from, how do you know where you're going? Make sure you visit Ireland as part of your Irish research.

The Great Famine - An Gorta Mór Skibbereen, Co Cork
I have added some images from the burial ground in Skibbereen, Co Cork.
There are headstones of all shapes and sizes. Also here is the mass grave of some 9,000 victims.
If you have ancestry from West Cork and you are more than curious, I'm always willing to help out.
If you are visiting Ireland and you have an interest in your ancestry. Please attempt to visit places like Skibbereen ......not only is it interesting but very moving too.

Ancestry Gifts - Embroidered Family Trees
Here is an embroidered tree (maternal line) that I recently had done for myself.
There is a lot of work that goes into it. I think it makes the ideal gift....... a family heirloom.
The cost of this is around £58 sterling. P&P might be more depending on where it is being sent to. I recommend registered post. (£8) £67.
My tree has a flower and birds which is significant to my Welsh side of the family. The lady who does the trees would advise you on what you could have.
The size of the tree is 16" x 12" and it is on linen. The frame is not included.
Feel free to email me if you would be interested in this for yourself or as a gift.
