No I'm not a typical Scotsman just a poor one, using ma' nebours computer.

However there are 25 registrations covering the period between 1837-1983 for James Dornan. Also 5 immigration records. Where was James Junior born? This will help to narrow the place down? regards Eileen in Portsmouth p.s. I have printed off some parish and probate records for Ireland in the name of Dornan, would you like me to e-mail this to you?

	Are you talking about N or S Ireland? There is a vast difference in accession of records. Janet
