Kevin,
You mentioned on
your web page that you have the Famine Immigrant List (Cryan and variants)
arriving at
Is there a Sarah

Parents of Austin R. Cryan of
Hi Daniel
Thanks for your
mail. Basically, I put every bit of
info I have on my
site.
The name
of an
various siblings
in even families that split between
countries.
I notice one
Have you gone
through the cryan list archive files on
my site?
http://geocities.com/caoimhghin/familyhistory.html
There are nearly
1500 A4 pages of information
contained in these
files.
Try searching the
keywords [esp Austin] you have given
me.
Are you on the cryan
list? the reseachers there are
very helpful...
Any Cryan and
variants info is valuable.
Please do put all
you know on the list or send it to
me for the archive
as you never know when someone will
find connections
[back to you] in the future. Any
American material
would be great to have.
regards
caoimhghin
I generally dont
put info from mails sent directly to
me in the archive
as they are not in the public domain
and may contain
personal material [unless asked to do
so]. So if you
join the list [which is free] and
resend then I can
put everything on my site.

roll call!
Top of Form
Bottom of Form
Over on Rootsweb's
Irish American list, they are
doing a roll call
- and I
thought to myself,
Self, I would love to see a
roll call on the
Cryan list!
Things have been a
bit quiet here lately, so why
not ask everyone
to speak
up and remind the
list who they're researching?
You never know,
you might
see something that
piques your interest.....
Here's how it
works:
Subject: Surname,
state(s)
Body of message:
short roll call about where the
ancestor
originated
and to what states
they emigrated. Use just
surname, years and
if they
went from state to
state use >> between.
ie Smith, 1880s,
NY >> 1890s OH >> 1905 CA
If you want to put
in city and/or county, that
will be fine.

My Crehans appear
