  My Irish ancestry    
  My husband and I are going to Ireland on the 18th and I am trying to find out where in Ireland, my great grandparents came from. My great grandfather was William Mc Ilfatrick and my great grandmother was Mary Ann Finlay. Mary Ann Finlay came from Ireland (born in 1867) and passed away in Philadelphia in 1954. I would love to have any information you might have...DNA says you are a 5th generation cousin. Sandra Council 361-645- 9254 Sjcouncil@hotmail.com
  
  I am so excited to see all that you sent me!
  Where are you located?
  I am in Goliad, Texas
  I grew up in south Jersey.
  Why is the name Finlow at one point?  Instead of Finlay.
  We will be flying to Ireland on March 18th.
  How would I find the same place where you were standing?
  I have information about Mary Ann Finlay & William Mc Ilfactrick
  When they lived in Philadelphia.  I have a photo of the large house where they lived.  They had a boarding house for Irish men that would come over to work.  When they could get enough money they would send for their families.  They had six children & four of them had died within a week from an illness.  My mother thought it was typhoid.  I have photos of the children & tombstones in Philadelphia... My grandmother was one of the oldest girls that lived until 1976.  I have photos, etc. if you are interested.
  I would love to find the old farm land in Ireland if there is some way to give me directions.
  It is exciting that I got all this information on my mothers birthday!  She passed away 4 years ago here in Texas.  She would be 99 today!  She was born in 1919
