Well my great grandmother on my mothers side was from Cork. I have not been able to trace much beyond that though. She married a Scotsman from Perthshire. My great grandmother on my fathers side was registered as living in Salford in Manchester. I do not if she was born there or in Ireland, her parents however were from Ireland, but the record I have does not say where exactly. As it happens I am expecting a phone call from a cousin of mine tonight who might be able to help me there. I also have a sneeking suspicion that another great grand-mother on my fathers side was Welsh, I don't know this for certain.
Well as far as I personaly am concerned the north belongs to Ireland. It is quite ironic really that the Unionists are more pro-British than most people in the UK. I blame the Normans for the bad blood between Engle and Gael. Anglo-Irish relations before the conquest were very good.
