	I may have found my brickwall ancestor's family (in Ireland) in a Burke's Peerage record. Wondering if anyone knows how much information is included in Burke's records, please? ....P.S. We do not have Burke's books in our libraries, I've checked.

	Hi Ken I checked that site awhile ago and never ordered the record. I'm just wondering how much information might be included. I guess I should get a subscription - it might help confirm my brickwall ancestor's family. Thank you for your help, Ken. :)

	Hi Michael. Sorry, I didn't see your message earlier. I looked at the site and unfortunately the document in which I'm interested doesn't appear, but the site is very interesting. Can't wait to look around more after my work day. Thank you for your help, Michael.
