ok,thanks for that. just in case someone was being malicious but i see you are genuine.

[size=150]The "Authority" on which I base my post is that I edit and publish Ms. O'Hara's official website and have for the past 20 years. Her grandson, Conor FitzSimons in Boise, Idaho (where Maureen now lives) is the person who shared this information. For about four months they did allow autographs; that service is no longer available. That's about all I can say. I was also involved in handling Ms. O'Hara's email as we routed it to her in Ireland for over seven years. The lady who was her assistant in Ireland was dismissed by the high court of Ireland and the address in Bantry - County Cork Ireland is no longer associated with Maureen O'Hara. [/size]

and you have this on what authority?

[size=150]Please note that as of last September, 2012, Ms. O'Hara returned to live in the United States. Her family initially tried to continue providing an autograph service, but the volume was just to great. Thus, there will be no more autographs from Ms. O'Hara. She will be appearing at the John Wayne Birthplace Museum on May 24th and 25th - 2013 in Winterset Iowa. We do have a very active extension page on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/pages/Maureen-OHara-Magazine-on-Facebook-Official-Site/131269913567989 with lots of fan interaction. I recently (Over St. Patrick's Day) published a series of video clips from Maureen's appearances on the Andy Williams show in the 1960s.[/size]
