Very disappointing content. Limited selection.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Irish Names for Children (Paperback)
I was extremely disappointed with this book. Not only does the book offer a severely limited selection of names (many common Irish names are not even included), but it would be surprising if a person actually used the names they offered. There was also no type of suggested pronunciation such as Seosaimhin, Niamh, Uinseann, etc. The book, not even 100 pages, states that it's "an Aspect of Irish History and Culture" - you're better off reading a history book.

Peg goghlan, I posess the highly autographed college annual from Eileen Goghlan from The Dominican College of San Rafael in California. Dated 1932, this annual " The Firebrand" contains many personal salutations from Eileens classmates from that school, I am in search of Goghlan family to return this to them. Can you be of help ? Student Eileen Goghlan, The Dominican College of San Rafael Dated 1932. Thanks
