Subject: Family...

The Loobey's is where you may learn a bit more...or not. I have been given

info, that goes back to 1823 and County Tipperary Ireland, but am not sure

of the name of some of the cities...this info I suspect is full of

misspellings or typing "strike overs". so if I am unsure I will put

(sp?) after the word.
