The source of information is from a wide variety of sources. The purpose of creating the outline (on the non-on line version) is to ultimatelly receive digital copies of a large library pertaining to Irwins and related families. The completion date is unknown and probably no time soon (if ever).
All data has not been personnally verified.
The online version of the outline was a school project. I do not know how much longer this site will be actively managed or updated. The on-line version is growing but requires a lot of work. Not all of which is going to come from us. In fact, at some point, it is intended that this site will become a forerunner to a seperate site run by someone else. My primary research activities are Longwell, Longwill, Langwell and Related Families (please click on the Longwell link - As with this site, the source and other supporting data are not on the on-line version).
As it relates to the Clan Irwin Association, I do not know how to answer this question. The Clan leadership is attempting to gain control of my Uncle's paper based records and for legal reasons I probably should not respond directly to this question.
The posting I made was for members of the Clan, that like my Uncle, believe in the free sharing of information on Irwin decendents.
If you wish to contribute something for the site, I am more than willing to give it to the site administer for adding it to the site. Just E-Mail it to lcml@aol.com.
You or anyone else that sees the site is free to copy from it. How easy or hard it is I do not know. Copy/Paste or print page works the best.
Let me know who you are looking for, let me know an E-Mail address and I will send over the line you are interested in. Or if you like, what I did for my primary project, was to send a gedcom so you do not have to retype everything. Also, this is not a condition of sending the file on the line you are interested in, but it would be appriciated if a gedcom file (assume on-line use in what is sent) be forwarded.
Thank-you:
