Dear Friends,
I am delighted to have discovered your website this evening! I am a cousin of Denis Lacey and Daniel Carew. I was last in Annacarty in September of 1998 with my mother, Catherine Buckley DiPasquale, the great-granddaughter of Jeremiah and Johanna (Carew) Buckley & William and Margaret (Lacey) Carew.
Keep up the great work!
I hope to return to Annacarty for the celebration in 2013.
Peace,
Phil
