Feel free to contact me. I would be happy to help.
I dedicate my research to my grandmother Margaret (Sullivan)O'Rourke.She is the one that started me researching my family history in 1997.She said, "I know alot about our family and if I do not have someone to tell or have write it all down.I will pass away with alot of information that no one will ever know".
In June of 2003, she was 90 years old. I am reminded everyday of the great gift that she has given me,
HER KNOWLEDGE OF OUR FAMILY HISTORY!
Love you Grandma O.
Happy Hunting to you all.
