Hi,
Thank you very much for your message. I am delighted that you were able to connect with some cousins! I have just responded to your message on the Coolkerry parish page, please see that message for some useful websites and suggestions:

Please be patient - as our programme has only begun to rollout across the island of Ireland and volunteers in some areas may not yet be organized.
Kind regards,
