Fintan Mullan and Gillian Hunt with the Ulster Historical Foundation will conduct a workshop about Irish and Scots-Irish research, including church records, land records, and Ulster Plantation sources for finding 17th-century families in Ireland. The Belfast-based registered charity and educational nonprofit is one of the leading genealogical resources on this topic and has helped transform the availability of Irish records for family historians at home and abroad.
