Haven't you wished that Someone would write a history of the Irish parish your family came from?
I sure have, and that Someone, for all of us with family from Kilmaley, Co Clare, is John Mayer... John wasn't satisfied with a small snapshot in time, he has researched and listed a vast number of families from the Kilmaley Parish, dating back over 200 years. This book is a must if you want to follow marriages and baptisms, some immigration and other assorted gems of information, whatever he was able to find in his extensive research. He doesn't pretend to have all the answers, but there sure are a lot of them.
There are photos, excerpts from Census returns, and so many family names with previously hard to find details ... This would be a great addition to any research library. The amount of time John has put into this book is amazing... and will be of great assistance to so many.

Absolutely wonderful, great value. I found a lot of information here. Thank you John for all your hard work. It helped me to complete a Memoir which I have writeen set in Kilmaley which includes historical interest and social history as well. It will be launched in July in Ennis.

So great to read your comment, Irene. John will be delighted to read it also. I use John's book constantly as reference and also just to piece together the threads of my research.
