April 28, 2006, Newsletter Issue #140: Searching for Irish ancestors
Tip of the Week
Searching for Irish ancestors if you are an emigrant.
Before searching in Irish records find out if you can:
1. The ancestor’s county of residence.
2. Dates of birth, marriage, death, religion, parents names, port where they landed – in fact any background information you can find will help make the search more productive.
Don’t despair if you don’t have all this information – sometimes a surname and a date is enough to start with especially if the surname isn’t a very common one.
