Genealogy Day – – – – 14 June
It was a busy and successful day. Researchers from the Genealogical Society of Ireland were in attendance and gave assistance in discovering more about people's ancestors. Click here for information on the Genealogical Society of Ireland.
If you were just starting to research your family history, there were templates to help you set out your personal family tree. Experts showed you how to trace records of your ancestors. If you had encountered a problem in your own research and you wanted to know how to proceed, the researchers pointed you in the right direction. The more family information you brought with you, the easier it was to get help.
This was a free event, open to everyone for a one-to-one session with a genealogist.
VENUE: St Laurence’s Parish Centre, Lower Kilmacud Road, Stillorgan, Co. Dublin (A94 CV63).
