My great-great-grandfather (?) Edward O'Hara found in the "Database of O'Hara Persons" at this site
(Feedback message
from Craig O'Hara)
I located an entry for Edward O'Hara in
Illinois for dates 1864 and 1870 in your database. I'm searching for my
great-great-grandfather and this could be him.
My question is what does Id: 2617 refer to and what does Entries: 1104
refer to? If one or the other of these items refers to
additional comments and/or notes, how do I access that additional
information?
Thank you in advance for your assistance. This website has been
extremely helpful and I hope it can lead me to my
great-great-grandfather. He's my ancestor who came to America from
Ireland and I'm trying to determine where in Ireland he migrated from.

There are three databases at this site,
namely the Database
of O'Hara Persons, the Database
of O'Hara People and the Messages
database.
Work on the O'Hara Persons database
has been
suspended. It was compiled between 1998 and 2006 and lists more than 2300
persons (that is id numbers 1 though 2300+) from more than a 1000
messages
(that is Entry numbers 1 through 1019) posted at the O'Hara
Genealogy Forum at
Genealogy.com. The forum still exists but its entry-number scheme has been
removed and a total of 786 results from posts since 1998 are
listed. The posts are not numbered and there is no
simple correspondence between the results displayed and the original
entry
numbers recorded in the O'Hara
Persons
database at this site. Therefore, the compilation has been suspended.
The O'Hara
People database is being continued and the intention is
(in due course) to include and analyse all data from the Messages database at
this site.
