* MESSAGE FROM PAT CONNORS

Pat has contributed so much to Clare research over the years... it's well worth looking at her site.

I have just updated the County Clare registry on my website at:
http://www.connorsgenealogy.com/clare/

If you have submitted a name, please check your entry for accuracy.  If you
find you want to change any of your data or add a name, please check out
the instructions at the bottom of the Surname Registry:
http://www.connorsgenealogy.com/clare/claresurnamesAtoD.html

I cannot stress enough that if you already have a name in the registry and
your email address has changed, using the instructions, send me your new
address and I will get it changed when I update the registry again.  Many
times in a month, I get an email from someone saying they think they have a
connection with an entry and when they tried to contact the submitter,
found the email address no longer worked.

Please note, all emails regarding the surname registries, should go to my
other email address:
nymets11@pacbell.net
