Search for relatives in Achill

I'm told there are a lot of people in Achill with whom I share
my name and I know there might be relatives.  I've tried to
find out how to contact them but no luck so far. Achill is an
Island off the West Coast and in County Mayo. I was there last
September but on a whirlwind tour, so no opportunity to check
it out. I'd appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks

If you know town lands and peoples names it is easy to use and start the ball rollong

Good hunting! Narraback
