Do you have Tue, 26 May 2009 17:52:28 GMT Bernie Cullen http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Irish-DNA/message/706 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Irish-DNA/message/706 The names that Ken gives are just a guide, mostly to help himself remember the different groups, and aren't the last word on the geography involved.
