Mary, are you just floating around here like me, giving a hand, because your own tree is stuck or have you finished it. Don't tell me if you have finished it.

Insomnia :-) I don't think my tree will ever be finished. Even if I could actually find all my direct ancestors (which I doubt, because some came from Ireland but I don't know where), there are lots of interesting people to explore in the outer reaches of the tree. I'm now doing my brother-in-law's tree, and about to embark on Italian research, which means visiting the historical archives in Milan Castle.

If you decide to do your Irish lot, and come across any spare Murphys from Co. Kerry, can I have them. They can just fill up the spaces.

Oh dear, you have common names too, do you? I'm looking for Cassidys and Kellys. If I knew where they came from it'd be a start. All their Australian BMD certificates just say 'Ireland'.
