Thanks for the prompt response and info.
No, I haven't read Riobard O'Dwyer's books yet. It's a project to do. He has a good reputation.
O' Shea or Shea is probably the second most common surname in West Cork after O'Sullivan. So we are everywhere.
Enjoy the Fourth of July celebration. It doesn't mean much on this side of the pond.
