Opening Post - Or how I came to call this Irish Genealogy Revisited

My wife has been running her blog- Cheshire Wife for over a year now, and she keeps reminding me that I have not really started my blog. So having just visited Ireland (for only the second time in my life - the first time was over 45 years ago, no less) partly to update some missing links to my family tree, I have decided that now is the right time to create this blog. This is not the first blog I have created. I actually now have three others. I may provide links to one or more of these later on.
