Thanks, what I really would like to do is just make a trip!  My
grandmother was from Ireland and her records did not exist, so I went
to visit the priest when I was in Ireland.  I am wondering if I have
family in Mosteiros, I think my grandfather came alone to the US and
his birth cert says his parents and grandparents were also of that
village.  I don't know if he had any brothers or sisters.  Sure would
like to know.  Thanks again, I will keep watching the site.  Ellen
