  1. A new participant from the United Kingdom identified Boyle family roots on Arranmore, including relatives still living in Upper Leabgarrow, and responded to the planned Beaver Island group visit. This is self-reported genealogy and correspondence about a possible meeting; it does not establish a documented relationship to a Beaver Island family or the final trip roster.

  2. The thread begins planning for a possible 2006 Beaver Island trip to Ireland/Arranmore, then records interest from additional participants and a possible spring or June timing. It is early informal planning; later Beacon notices are stronger for the itinerary and date.

  3. The organizer recruited Islanders for a group trip planned around April 1, 2006, with group-rate arrangements and a September 15 deadline for coordinated airfare and lodging. This is planning correspondence; it does not establish the final group or itinerary.
