Wagontown, Sinking Spring, Stony Creek ,all in my area of PA.


You are all too stupid to realise that the Virginia in Ireland was named
*AFTER* the Virginia in the USA.

I was confident that none of you knew anything at all about history, ... and

Don't be so obtuse and sanctimonious, Donal. Wjhy should we
reiyterate the obvious? I've been to Manteo and the Roanoke
colony's landing place and live in the state of VA. Virginia Dare
was the child of British parents so therfore was named after
something British, not American.
