My name is Wanda Quinn. I'm from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
One of my interests is Genealogy. I love learning about my ancestors and hearing stories about how and when they came to Canada from Ireland. The Murphys and Connollys came to Canada from Ireland in 1841, and my great, great grandfather, Thomas Connolly came from County Mayo and his wife, Mary Ellen Quinn, came from County Cork around 1879.
I've been using
Corel's Family Tree Suite to put my family tree together. What a great program, its so easy to use and adding pictures is real easy.
For cat lovers, here's a picture of my cat, Frisky. She's 8 years old and a real handful!
I have some links to Irish sites for those interested, you can find them on my Irish page.
If anyone has information on the surnames mentioned above, please e-mail me. Thanks!
I enjoy crafts of all kinds, especially quilting (I'm still working on my first double irish chain wall hanging quilt!)
Here are some quilting links:
I like most kinds of music, especially celtic and classic rock. Great Big Sea is a good celtic band from Newfoundland. I also love listening to Blue Rodeo.
My favourite TV shows are ER Friends, Touched by an Angel, and Allie McBeal. I'm also an avid Days fan. Check out what Sammy is up to these days here!.
