Hi NiMhaoileoin,

Thank you so much for the information you provided regarding the image of Baronston in Woods' Annals of Westmeath, and my apologies for being so tardy in offering my thanks. I posted my request there in January, and by the time of your reply in April I had quite given up and so forgot to check the page for any responses. I have, as you may or may not have noticed, extracted the image from the Annals and uploaded it to Wikimedia Commons in order to use it in the Wikipedia article on Edmond Malone. I should be very interested to see any information you may have on the Malone family or on Shinglas (or even any further information on Baronston; I should very much like to have GPS/geographical coordinates for its location, or information on the current day state of the building and property, for instance). I attempted to email you, but according to the error message I received you have not entered a valid email address in your user preferences on Wikipedia. If you could let me know when you have done so—or you can use the email function on my user page to send me an email; it should work—I should be most grateful. PS. The email address you provide in your user preferences on Wikipedia is hidden from all other users and can only be used to send email from within the Wikipedia software itself. If, on the other hand, you enter your email address on a talk page like this one, the address will be publically available on the Internet, iff that should be of concern to you (some do not mind, others prefer to keep their email address private). --Xover (talk) 07:14, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
 * You are probably not watching this page a year later, but as you appeared to have some interest in the Malone family (as your username suggests), I figured I should provide this update. Late last night, by coincidence mostly, I stumbled across two sources that claim Baronston was demolished in 1929 (chiefly http://www.araltas.com/features/malone/). That would tend to explain why no recent mention of the house could be found. Such a pity as it looks like a magnificent building, but I suppose it saves me a futile trip to Ballynacargy trying to find it (then again, there is that mausoleum by Lord Sunderlin that I'm told still exists in Kilbixy). In any case, I just wanted to let you know what I'd found on the off chance you glanced at this page and some interest in what I'd found. --Xover (talk) 06:18, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
