WE had a cousin of my mothers who was known as "Aunt Peg Lalor". If I could prove an ascendency from Peter Lalor that would be a plus. He has a relative here in Melb named Peter Lalor who is a police sgt. in the victoria police.

Hi Seán, So it looks like we ARE related!! Who would have thunk - as the man said. Delighted you are fine and AOK. So then, have you looked up your "Lalor" heritage? Plenty on the net. Your kinship with Peter Lalor should go down very well in Oz. Éamonn.

Seán, My sincere apologies - I hadn't realised what you meant when you said you were going to be away for a couple of days. I trust all went well. Always best to get these things looked at, just in case. All the best, Éamonn.

Hi Seán! This gets "curiouser and curiouser"! My own mother was from Mountmellick!!! A farm just over two miles outside the town, a townland called Cloncannon. My Mum's maiden name was Keating. Her mother was a Lalor, a descendent of the Lalors of James Fintan Lalor fame, and, of probably more interest to you in Australia, Peter Lalor of the "Eureka Stockade". So now you're suckin' diesel - as they say around those (Laois) parts! So, we have St. Vincent's and we have Mountmellick! I wonder if we might even be brothers!!??!! You didn't by any chance have a father named Ted who fought the British singlehandedly for over 72 hours in the Furry Glen? Arrested them all without firing a shot, brought them to Ballyfin College and interned them there for six months before releasing them into the wild? They say he was a very humane man. Second thoughts, he most probably was not your Dad!!!! But seriously, my Mum's part above is correct. Welcome aboard the Midnight Express to Memorabilia! Best Regards, Éamonn. (Surf's Up!)

Ooops, Seán, I nearly forgot! My father-in-law was born in New York. I'm sure that adds a very significant factor to the conversation. Where was your great-aunt Mary born? Éamonn, Dublin, Ireland (father-in-law from New York, father from Dublin, mother from Laois, wife from Leeds, England ...........)

Seán - This is more than tiresome! What on earth are you talking about? What has your grandfather being born in Manchester got to do with it? Also, t was YOU who said that I hate the Palestinians. I simply said I don't hate them, and I don't love them. Do you think that just because I believe in Jesus as God that I have to LOVE everybody? I am also a human being, with the feelings of a human being. Believing in a God does not confer divinity on anybody, including me. Éamonn, Dublin, Ireland.

Wrong again Eamonn MY grandfather was born in Manchester. You do not love the Palestinians,ou do not hate the Palestinians,but you condone the murder of Palestinian men, women and children. How unchristian of you Eamnon!! As Christ said love your enemies pray for them who hate you. Maybe Christ got it wrong as an atheist what would I know.

seán - I have never said I love the Palestinians. I said I don't hate them. Why oh why do you guys have to twist everything? All you are doing is betraying the fact that without twisting what is said by others you cannot argue a straight point. Éamonn, Dublin. I DON'T HATE PALESTINIANS. NEITHER DO I LOVE THEM. (BTW, Seán, of course you support Man. City - they are owned by the Arabs. I have a soft spot for Tel Aviv myself - ever since they played in Tolka Park in a friendly match in the first ever floodlit soccer game in Ireland.)

"Wounded Knee" - I support Leeds United because I lived in Leeds from my emigration there at 15 years of age until my return to Dublin at 36 years of age. Are you REALLY so twisted that you cannot see how anybody can be proud to be Irish and at the same time support an English soccer team? You must lead a painfully sad life! BTW, you will find the meaning of the word "support" in any basic dictionary of the English language - or you can always ask a passing seven year old. Tell me something, do you spend ALL of your time trawling through internet boards looking for something to abuse and attack? Éamonn, Dublin, Ireland. PROUD TO BE IRISH. I STAND WITH ISRAEL. I SUPPORT LEEDS UNITED. I THINK "WOUNDED KNEE" IS A NUT.
