[quote=Anonymous]Through some digging I was able to find the exact plot of land where my grandmother’s grandmother lkved as a child during the Famine in Ireland. I have it circjd on a google maps. It’s not far from ma popular cycling/walking trail so I’ve thought about going and jumping the fence to stand there and soak it in. I think the land has been basically left mostly unissued even though it’s been almost 200 years now. I don’t know what happened to her father or any siblings but I think there were likely buried in a mass unmarked grave—there are a few of them in that area of Ireland from the famine. My siblings have been to the town my other grandmother came from and see the church where she was baptized but I don’t think there’s any way to know where her family lived. It’s one of those towns where everyone has the same name basically. [/quote]
