I have been researching my tree since 2000 and have been able to trace my paternal line back to 1826 in the Parish of Aghada, County Cork, Ireland. My maternal line has hit a brick-wall in the late 1850's but I can trace both lines back to the Springfield/Chicopee area of western Massachusetts. I now live in a small village in western Franklin County.
