The new Guestbook has been developed because on 6 Sep 2017 Rootsweb announced that they will be discontinuing their Guestbooks as of 13 Oct 2017. We have found this to be a valuable tool for our members, therefore, we kept the old entries. With the creation of our New Guestbook, we continue to offer this long-standing service.

Hello,
Just a brief note to say thank you. I had the immense pleasure of visiting Co. Donegal and Co. Tyrone last year. Everyone I met, from the folks at the Ulster-American Center near Omagh, the folks at Monreagh Museum near Carrigans and even George, the shop-keepers father in Donegal Town all were so very kind, warm and welcoming. Amazing all!
My line comes down from one of the Rev. Francis Makemie’s brother John (siblings are Francis, Robert, John, and Anne). Research indicates their father went by the name Robert. Research also indicates the father was moved to Ulster, particularly the area around Ramelton/Rathmullan, as a boy from Inverness.
Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to join the group. Hope to be able to participate and contribute as much as possible.
Take care,
David
