Birdie--who will be wearing green tomorrow
The name Kelly or Kelley is in my ancestry(or is it "incestry?").
There are a few Irish names in my pedigree too (along with Scottish, German, Welsh and who knows what else - I'm rather fond of mutts ya know!). One name, that at least sounds like it has a DS connection, is the name
Bennett. When I was in Kilarney in 2000 someone in a shop (with a lot of ancestry tourist stuff) looked it up in a book for me and said the name came to Ireland by way of France. So, in lieu of green beer I believe I will have a nice glass of merlot
.
Cheers to all and Happy St. Paddy's Day! I know I'm more than ready for a little green this year!
(Anyone else think this may be one of Quentin's favorite holidays too! tee hee
)
