Claire's ancestry - McConville Gallery

Here are some photos from the McConville side of my family. I hope to put some more up soon. *UPDATE* - I have just recently received photos from a cousin in Australia. Among them are photos of my Great Grandparents, Great Great Grandmother and my Grandfather, Mark McConville Senior. You may also be interested in Life in the Mill Row.
