Hello Friends Tammy & I are still seeking a co-admin to join us, to help with this mailing list. It would be helpful to have had some experience with a Rootsweb list, and have some knowledge, of any other county in Ulster, besides Tyrone. :-) (these not requirements, as the list is relatively easy to operate) Should you be interested, please contact~
