My Bateman line left Ireland and went to Canada lived there for about 17 years before they migrated to the US about 1855.
My mom's Wilson line left Ireland and moved to Clinton Co., NY about 1835.

Penny I cannot imagine taking down wallpaper. I think I would rather put a wall up over it!
I think that would be easier to me.

I attempted taking down wallpaper in kitchen and upstairs hallway. I tell people it's a work in progress. It is, I started many years ago. My sister told me to take down the awful green velvet trees on a foil background upstairs, and the awful paper in the kitchen. The walls have never looked worse. She didn't tell HOW to remove wall paper so I just kept pulling until big pieces ripped off wrecking dry wall as well.

My son said he would patch the dry wall or something - still waiting on that. Found out the kitchen had pink walls at one time and yellow before that. Oh well.

Wish someone had told me to put paneling or something over it.

You'all need some little kids running around, they make short work of tearing down wallpaper....
Our living room we've wallpapered twice.
Think we're going to just spackle paint them sometime.
