I visited Ireland Twice to find relatives over 30 years ago, I traced them to Killaloe and visited with the MinisteChurcr at the Church, He did not know much about the area? I found out a lot more on my own, But I also found that Many of my Family Are buried in the church yard, and some Ministered at the Church, There are four houses across the road from the Cathederal that were built by my family and donated to the Diocese, and the rent helps keep the church operating.  The  Minister was kind enough to show me the inside and there was a plaque on the wall with the Martin name on it.Can you any Church records for Me?

  • Hi Jane: I appreciate the opportunity to finally make a contact in Ireland, when I was there several times,I did gather quite a bit of information and pictures, But my car was broken into the day I was leaving and they stole my Camera, so I lost a lot of pictures of information I had found, Are there Church record Books with the Information, and have they been filmed?  Also there is a Large tombe stone right next to the Killaloe Cathederal, at the back that is My relative, he was in the millitary, I found that he lived on a place they called the lands of fountian because one had to cross a stream from the spring. I went to the door of the house to the visit with people who lived there, but they were just coming out to go to a wedding, so I did not get to talk with them. Also many of my family I understand are buried in the church yard ?  Any information would be greatfully appreciated. Roger Martin
