Thanks for posting Colette - very interesting.

I read your message and scrolled down without looking at the names. I stopped at James Lennon only because he loooks the spit of Steve's brother! I wonder if he is related to us. Certainly Dundalk fits in with Tom Lennon's story that they came from Dundalk (even though Belfast is written on one census page).
thanks for pointing it out to me.
