I enjoy indulging in my autistic interest in family history, I often indulge in looking at graveyard websites in my local area and I often drive around the townlands to look at the lands that my ancestors lived. Townlands are small rural regions of Ireland often only a few miles long. My grandfather had 4 uncles who died in WW1, an uncle who was in the IRA during Irish civil War and he also had 3 aunts who emigrated to North America so there is alot for autist to indulge in. Then on my other grandfathers side, his parents worked in NE USA just before the depression hit and had to return to Celtic shores.
