On the Hunt for Ancestors
The first part of this trip sees us driving to Houston to visit family then flying from IAH to Ireland to take a genealogy workshop at University College Cork. Next, we travel up the western coast of the island as far as Londonderry, then back south to Dublin visiting the homes and haunts of any ancestors we find along the way. After arriving back in the States, we drive from Houston to San Antonio then through Dallas to Oklahoma City for a family reunion. We stop in Weatherford before heading home.
