Tomorrow, we are leaving for Ireland for a 19 day tour of the Emerald Isle. Our first five days, will be spent in Northern Ireland (see pre-trip extension below), and we will end our journey in Galway. With my maternal grandfather named Francis Patrick Flaherty, this trip is extra special to me. I sent my DNA sample to Ancestry.com to see how Irish I really am. The results arrived just in time; however, I’m not quite as Irish as I thought, only 27%. I can trace those roots to County Kerry all the way back to the late 1700’s. Join us on this adventure as you have time and interest . (Ancestry has since revised my DNA results, and now they report that 56% of my Ancesters came from Ireland & Scotland.)
