Accessing Irish Records from North America
Guest Speaker: Dick Doherty. This lecture focuses on Ireland’s major records, and cost-effective methods for accessing them from North America. Included are recent Irish repository initiatives that make indexes and images available online (both free and fee). Ireland records accessible through the Family History Library are also discussed. Dick lectures in the U.S., Canada and Ireland and is a past-president of three genealogical societies. Dick is also a delegate to the Federation of Genealogical Societies and the Michigan Genealogical Council.
