Huh, just found out my family on me mum's side hails from Waterford. Apparently me great-great-grandad left in the early 1800s to come to Canada. He was a teacher who ended up teaching children in Newfoundland. So, hi to all my - unknown - relations there! I'll drop by one of these days and we'll have a pint or two and catch up. :P

Apparently my surname comes from Waterford or Kilkenny. It’s killing me not knowing which one I’m from. I want to visit my ancestors home so bad!. Waterford looks so beautiful.

I think vikings are treated unfairly... They were smarter and able to travel by boat, is it their fault they wanted to explore? Maybe when they landed in unknown places they were treated very badly by the natives (likely), and no choice but to fight back and reap the rewards. They weren't only smarter, but stronger too.

Waterford is the oldest city in Ireland

Frankly the myth that Waterford is "the oldest city in Ireland" needs to stop if one is interested in fact and truth.. Dublin, established by the Vikings in 841, is most definitely Ireland's oldest city. Dublin was the first permanent settlement established by the Vikings in Ireland and Waterford came much later, in 914 I believe. It's quite astonishing how this lie has been allowed to grow such mythical legs. On top of that, to suggest that Waterford supposedly became more important than Dublin for a time is highly questionable given that Dublin was one of the most most important viking towns/cities in western Europe.
