Hi,
Thank you very much for your message. Can you give any more information on the family, such as important dates like birth, marriage years etc?
Remember to post as much information as you can with regard to the people you are researching. The more information you post, the more likely it is that one of our volunteers will be able to advise or assist you. Also include information concerning which sources you may have already used so others may further your search.
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,

Thank you for getting back to me. i know very little only that Ellen Ronan was born in 1922 and only know that because knew she was buried in Rathnew grave yard and i found the grave it said she died 11 Nov 1969 aged 47. and i know she is from Ferns they were related to to people that ran the old post office the (mile house).i think she was related to Kehoe,Ryans and Fenlons. And that is all i have at this time.
