Genealogy Day – – – – 14 June
Researchers from the Genealogical Society of Ireland will be in attendance and ready to assist you in your quest to discover more about your ancestors. Click here for information on the Genealogical Society of Ireland.
If you are just starting to research your family history, we have templates to help you set out your personal family tree. Experts will show you how to trace records of your ancestors. If you have encountered a problem in your own research and you want to know how to proceed, the researchers will point you in the right direction. The more family information you can bring with you, the easier it will be to get help. Bring along a notebook and pen and a phone/camera to take a photo of the information received.
This is a free event, open to everyone. There is no need to book a spot – just drop by for a one-to-one session with a genealogist.
VENUE: St Laurence’s Parish Centre, Lower Kilmacud Road, Stillorgan, Co. Dublin (A94 CV63). Please note also that there is a car parking charge of one euro per hour at the venue (coin payment only).
