Alan,

I'll take a shot at translating whatever you got - do you have a URL or some
such?

Also, interesting in lieu of the "Wild Geese" who left Ireland and went to
the European continent - especially the Rork (O'Rourkes) family of Russia
(Belarus) - my first wife was the granddaughter of Polish nobility from
Lvov/Lwow/Lviyv/Lemberg in that was formerly Poland, then Austria, then
Russia and now Ukraine. Her grandfather's lastname was "Omellan" - she
herself could pass for Irish. I wonder if this is a far flung cousin of the
Mulligans??

Cheers,
PAUL Conroy
