Course Summary:

Optional Print Course Material: Research: Irish Ancestors

*Course material will only be sent to students who are registered in the course.

This course is an introduction to the first two centuries of family history research in Ireland, covering both Northern Ireland, which remains part of Britain, and the Republic of Ireland, independent since 1922. Emphasis is on conducting research from home, rather than merely covering the resources available in Ireland. Irish records are available worldwide if you know where to look, and this course discusses where they are and how to utilize them.

Difficulties inherent in Irish research, key items in Irish history and geography, and to emigration (the Irish Diaspora) are included. Original sources covered are civil registration, census (including substitutes where these are lacking), church registers, and probate. These are followed with discussions of the usefulness of occupational records and locating research already done or in progress.
