60% of your ancestors came from Ireland? Wow!! So you'd be an expert in Irish research, right? When I follow my one Irish line, I'll be sure to ask you for tips. And I luuuurve your map - it's so very cool.
ReplyDeleteThanks Alona. I had fun creating the map and I think I'll make one of my English and Welsh ancestors too at some stage.
DeleteI really like your map representation of your Irish ancestors' places of origin. You have no shortage of Irish ;-) Funnily enough some of mine must have been a decent stone's throw from yours -in Broadford, East Clare or Davidstown Kildare, but then I guess that's true of many of us in this nation of Irish immigrants.
ReplyDeleteThanks Pauleen. It seems like so many of the inhabitants of that part of County Clare came to Australia!
