Your site design is superb.
Love the music. I am descended from Patrick Mooney who was born about 1838
somewhere in County Mayo. Whether I find his specific birthplace or not,
the next time I am in Ireland, I will be sure to visit beautiful Mayo.

Mary, You have put so much
work in your website and I am sure it brings many besides myself great
pleasure.It is truly lovely and the music is marvelous. Thanks for linking
the Yukla 27 memorial site, it gives me great comfort to know that people
care. Losing a child is a difficult thing to deal with but having others
take time to view the memorial and take note does help. Thank you my friend.

What a great site! I have
grandparents that came from your area. Michael Hanley from Cloonif, Parish
of Moycullen, Honora Darmody from Kinvarra and Maria Hannon from County
Clare. Your site brightened the day for this retired 70 year old as I have
been very sad this week as I'm reading a book on the famine in 45'
Your site is a thing of beauty...keep up the good work

FABULOUS& GORGEOUS site!
I'm working on my Irish genealogy...my Murray's were from Westport,Mayo
and later Clifden,Galway, and later, Peterborough,Ontario. I wish I could
afford to travel to Ireland! After 24 yrs. as an illustrator @ a major
corp I've just now stated my own business as a freelance illust. of children's
publications. I've got a LOT to learn about "business", but I'm having
a ball! Never thought I'd be starting over as I was turning 49 (in April).
But, I only lost my old job....not my talent! Congratulations on a very
uplifting web site! You sound very KEWL lady indeed! If you were my neighbor,
I'm sure we'd be best friends! Warm Regards, Patti

Your website was mentioned
on the "Shamrock" website. It's really great. You should get more publicity.
Good luck, John.
P.S. I have "roots" in Kilconnell

Hello, Just spent some time
at your site. I surfed over from a link on one of the Irish Genealogy sites
I'm on:) Enjoyed the visit and the pics!
BTW you mentioned that 50%
of your roots were in Sligo. I've been trying to track down the birthplace,
town, parish, family of Mary C. O'Beirne who was my ggrandmother. My aunt
tells me that she was born in Sligo or County Leitrim.
Do you know if there are
O'Beirnes in that area? Would you happen to have an Irish Directory
that might provide some contacts? I'd appreciate any thoughts or comments
you might have. I sure hope the spelling is correct... O'Beirne. Imagine
if somehow the surname was corrupted...that would really be a set back!
Look forward to hearing from you. Best wishes for a successful NEW YEAR.

One off the best sites I
have ever come across in my short time on the net but it brought me home
for a half an hour and the music was excellent. I will be coming back and
every time I do I will sign the guest book. I used to live in the Westside
till about two years ago and I too was born in Birmingham but was brought
up in Galway city. I also lived in Rossaveal in Connemara and someday hope
to have a site as good as urs. Anyway take care and look after urself,
all the best from WAYNE
For those who have just
joined me on this page why not go to the beginning of our travels and see
some of the places in The Start of Our Journey
through the West of Ireland.
My
Place Amongst the Stones gives the history of my company name, Moytura
- a celtic heritage going back thousands of years.
We journey to my own parish
of Lackagh - a small village just 12 miles from
Galway with a mighty big history. Learn all about the Battle
of Knockdoe - one of Ireland's bloodiest of conflicts in the 16th century.
We then move on to take a
quick jaunt around Galway City; and then to the
heart of Connemara - with its wild and wonderful
beauty.
From there we journey south
into County Clare and see The Burren - a place
that has lain undisturbed since the Ice-age and of immense botanical, ecological
and archaeological importance.
Visit Ireland's finest early
monastic heritage centre in Clonmacnoise,
County Offaly; and to my favourite of all the early Christian Church locations
- Clonfert, South County Galway, with its beautiful
tiny 12th century Cathedral of Saint Brendan. Come with me around the grounds
and see the Bishop's Palace and the 1000 year
old Yew Walk.
While on the Clonfert pages,
you can learn a potted history of Saint Brendan
the Navigator, possibly the first European to set foot in North America
in the 6th. century. And join me in the celebrations when this tiny cathedral
was listed in the World Monuments Watch 2000
most endangered monuments.
Come with me on my 'Famine
Journey' which starts in Westport, and moves
to Sligo, my Dad's County and the departure port
for many of the 'Coffin Ships'. This part of my
journey ends in Grosse-Île on a tiny
island east of Quebec City.
On this page you will learn
some of the history of our Famine Refugees and find the final resting place
of over 6,000 of my country folk who died within sight of their first freedom
in over 300 years. This is where many of the Irish roots in North America
started.
Our Journey moves on to other
places on that visit to Canada where we see Quebec
City and some of Ontario's lovely places
and then to two of Canada's famous Catholic Shrines - Saint
Anne de Beaupré and to Cap-de-la-Madeleine.
Finally, join me on my pilgrimage
to a peaceful haven in a war-torn country in Medugorje
in Bosnia-Hercegovinia. The other areas of my Web site can be found in
the drop-down box below.
If you are interested in
Irish history or anything to do with Ireland why not visit our new additions
where you will find a large selection of genuine Irish goods as well as
Irish reading, music & viewing material!:
Moytura's
Irish Store, Moytura's
Irish Bookshop, Moytura's

I have added links
pages of other places related to the places we visit, links
to leisure activities in Ireland i.e. golf, fishing, horse riding,
sailing in Ireland, festivals, entertainment etc. and some of my friends'
home pages.
