Lovely part of the country dill, but then you could probably say that about most of the country.I've researched some of family history and found out that we originated in County Sligo
Know who else is from County Sligo...none other than Brother Walfrid
This website is a great resource for checking into Irish family history and beginnings
The poet WB Yeats comes from there, also Bram Stoker's mother (her son wrote Dracula)
I intend getting over to check the place out at some point

Ancestry.co.uk is a great website if you're doing family history. They also do dna to get the full low down on where you're from and then link you with distant and sometimes close relatives that you didn't know about.
