Good thinking - I’m tying myself up on knots with this … my pall has added photos etc … will probably need to reattach these - but that can’t be helped

Happy St Patrick’s Day. I hope you’re all celebrating your Irish heritage today where ever you are.

We all have 16 great great grandparents …. All of mine were born in Ireland…. Kildare, Westmeath, Monaghan & Louth.

St. Patrick's Day in Irish birth records 1864-1923: Of almost 9,500 children registered with a date of birth of 17 March, less than a third (2,535) were registered with some version of the name Patrick. Of these, 334 were named Patricia - the first being Patricia Martin in 1894 #IrishGenealogy
