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
