Athbhliain faoi mhaise, Happy New Year from Chicago, Illinois, USA ! I came across these Minute Books this week. Is it possible someone can help me decipher what it says and possibly what it means ? My ancestor was Ross Michael O'Loughlin. He was born in Ennistymon, Co Clare on 20 May 1820. Ross emigrated to America in 1849 "under contract" in Detroit where he sent passage back to Ireland for his wife, Marie Bourke O'Laughlin b: 28 May 1824, and their 2 children James Francis b: 1844 and Susan (sr Mary Aphrata) O'Loughlin b:19 June 1846 in Monreel, Ennystymon, d: 25 April 1924 in USA. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My quest is to tell Ross & Marie's story.

Hi Molly,
Denise asked me to try to help you and I will do the best I can. I have one document transcribed but not yet typed up but may have the time later tonight to exercise my two finger typing and will get back to you with it as soon as possible. I also have some work done on the second document but it is much slower than the first as the quality of the document is very poor.
I do hope to get a full accurate transcription from it in the next day or two but depends on time availability. I am very happy to help if I can. Frank
