Mapping Ireland's Records

27 July 2024 9:30am Pacific Time

Presented by John Grenham


The event is presented online via Zoom

John Grenham”s website, Irish Ancestors, https://www.johngrenham.com/, is a premier resource for people researching their Irish heritage. It includes name variations and distribution, place names and finding aids for the religious and civil divisions, maps, record sources and availability, and links to the major archives and databases.

The website has undergone major changes over that past year in mapping Irish surnames, record sources and geographic divisions. In this talk, John will cover these changes and how to deal with visualizations of Irish sources. The talk also provides a broad overview of the most relevant records for Irish research.

John will offer a 33% discount on the website subscription cost to attendees who register by July 30.
