Hi:

I'm travelling to Ireland on June 15th for 2 weeks (and then one week in
Wales). I have no real idea which County my ancestors came from, though the
surname (Guilfoyle) is most common to Offaly and Clare.

Does anyone have any ideas about how best to use limited time to try to
track them? I'll only be in Dublin for 4 days. I believe my Guilfoyles
arrived in 1849 at the Port of New York, aboard the DeWitt-Clinton.

Any suggestions?

Jan.
