You are a bit  misplaced here try  http://groups.google.com/group/soc.genealogy.ireland/

  this is a very quiet daughter group
of  http://groups.google.com/group/soc.genealogy.britain/

which is busy, knowledgable. ummoderated , even rude,  and loud
and like this deals with England Wales and Scotland


lurk a bit in both  groups and see how to pose a question on a single topic that might find a ready answer
 for local knoledge join a rotsweb county list
good luck

Hugh W

You'll probably find your McGouran and Murray antecedents in Scotland
and your Porritt antecedents in Yorkshire, prior to their nipping off to
Ireland (perhaps in the 17th century). Perhaps Ford is Scots, too, but
it's a common name.
