I spent two weeks in four towns in Ireland. I rented a car and stayed in bed & breakfasts. A travel agency set up the customized trip for me. One thing to remember re: tracing your roots is that prior to the 20th Century Ireland was occupied by England and the Catholic population was treated like cattle.My father's family came over to America about 1820 and though I knew what town they came from I was unable to find any trace of them there. My mother's father came over about 1900 and I was able to get a copy of his birth certificate but no other info. It was an enjoyable trip nonetheless. Frank Sully
