Description
We are all fascinated by the unknown members of our respective families. Where did our family come from originally? Were earlier generations related to anyone famous? Did any of our antecedents leave a serious mark on history? Each book follows the same pattern: * A brief introduction to the family, its crest and details of where the family originated. * Information on how to set about tracing your own particular branch of the family - how to use the variety of genealogical research tools that are now available. * Brief biographies of famous people who bore same surname. Each book is illustrated in full colour throughout and will provide an attractive introduction to the family name for its various members. The first twelve volumes in the series will cover the following family names: Byrne 0 7171 3555 1 Doyle 0 7171 3560 8 Kelly 0 7171 3551 9 Kennedy 0 7171 3561 6 Murphy 0 7171 3550 0 O'Brien 0 7171 3554 3 O'Connor 0 7171 3557 8 O'Neill 0 7171 3658 6 O'Reilly 0 7171 3559 4 O'Sullivan 0 7171 3552 7 Ryan 0 7171 3556X Walsh 0 7171 3553 5.
