A Gem of Journey on the Emerald Isle A long lost relative had reemerged via a strange form letter sent to all members of my family. Phones were a buzz when aunts and uncles exchanged calls all wondering who this Francis was and what did he want with my family? Turns out, the geneology bug doesn't just bite Americans looking ...
