Click the Foreign Affairs link on my Ballycastle Irish Citizenship page http://www.goballycastle.com/irishcitizenship to see Irish citizenship application requirements details. Please contact me mike@GoBallycastle.com if you would like me to help you find your Irish ancestors' baptism and birth certs in Ireland.

My maternal grandparents were married in England and I haven't been able to get marriage certificates. My paternal grandparents were married in US but I'm not sure where and can't frind those records either, can I still get Irish citizenship? http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=irish_citizenship&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c304 2011-02-17T02:49:41Z Nora Boyle [Visitor] Catherine Feeley, Catherine Ferry, James Gallagher, Boyle, County Lietriem...all 4 grandparents were born there.

I am from the Pittsburgh PA region and there are a lot of people of Irish descent living here. I am surely going to read all your information and I am anxious to start reading. I thought I had my Great Grandparents figured out from the information on their marriage application. Then upon requesting their death certificates the dates and information was all different. Back to the research for me.... http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=american_city_irish_village_connections&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c96 2010-07-27T20:53:27Z Carol Hobbs Gilliotti [Visitor] Mike, my family came to Carbondale, PA abt 1834-36.Name was changed to McDonald. Family left behind was Ann Nolan McDonnell and her young son Alex. Her husband Patrick and another son Francis died before her children (Patrick, Peter and Ellen) left Ireland. They must have lived near the Ocean because my Great Great Grandmother (Ellen McDonnell Quinn) told my great grandmother that she missed the sounds of the Ocean> ]]> http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=american_city_irish_village_connections&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c80 2010-05-09T11:57:46Z Mike of BallyC [Member] Carol, We have common Irish county origins. My Irish ancestors started in Sligo and moved to Glencalry, very near to Ballycastle, Mayo, around 1850, one of them, my grandfather, Martin, came to America in 1892, returned to Ireland and married a Mayo woman in 1911, and both came to Baltimore, Maryland in 1912 and stayed. I am particularly interested in your Ballycastle side, as a number of my Irish relatives and friends live there today. When did your Irish ancestors travel to America? http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=american_city_irish_village_connections&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c79 2010-05-08T20:55:49Z Carol Hobbs Gilliotti [Visitor] My Irish ancestors (McDonnell/McDonald) came to Carbondale, PA USA from Ballycastle, Mayo County and (Quinn) came from Sligo. I believe they sailed from Killala Bay http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=an_irish_family_gathering_day_one&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c66 2010-04-08T09:54:22Z Ralph Smith [Visitor] Great post.

Thanks for the blog! great information http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=basquet_case&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c46 2010-02-08T04:48:11Z m3i zero [Visitor] Thank you for your great article. http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=basquet_case&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c45 2010-02-04T00:58:16Z Mike of BallyC [Member] Do an internet search on Diarmuid Gavin and his TV documentary series, Blood of The Irish and you should find some additional information on the documentary. http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=president_obama_s_irish_origins_moneygal&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c44 2010-02-04T00:09:51Z Premier Team International [Visitor] This is interesting, especially considering that the local Church of Ireland was contacted by Salt Lake City, (basically the capital of the Mormon church), and that the Mormon leaders later presented the president with his own copy of his family's geneaology. So the president probably knows he has Irish roots. http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=basquet_case&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c43 2010-02-02T22:22:22Z Premier Team International [Visitor] This blog post was interesting to read, but I'm not sure how I feel about the implications about the Irish heritage... Is there a link to the docutmentary you mentioned? http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=an_irish_blessing_before_meals&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c42 2010-01-25T17:27:41Z Translation Services Guy [Visitor] Litteral translations often lose their meanings, particularly in things like this and it is a true art to get it right! http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=president_obama_s_irish_origins_moneygal&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c41 2010-01-24T09:13:44Z bobby [Visitor] Everyone knows the phrase "Yes ,we can" http://goballycastle.com/blog/index.php?blog=2&title=a_defining_moment&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1#c38 2009-12-21T05:59:58Z Term Papers [Visitor] Nice post.
