My ancestors emigrated from County Mayo to Canada in the mid 1800's and I was wondering if there are any Joynt's left in the area.

Hi
Thank you for your message.
Do you know much about their emigration? The dates, the reason why they left, who they may have travelled with?..etc..Generally more information was given at the port of arrival rather than the port of departure. If you knew which city they arrived at (e.g. Liverpool, New York, etc.), this could be a good place to find more information.
Some information regarding County Mayo geneaology & emmigration can be found at:
