Registration Now Open for Irish Workshop!
Join us for this exciting workshop featuring Miles Davenport, genealogist & lecturer at the McLelland Library in Phoenix, as he discusses 19th Century Irish Genealogy Research: What's Available and How to Use It.
Participants will gain an in-depth look at Irish records created during the 1800’s. The Irish Civil Registration process will be explored, including the time period covered by these records and their limitations. The workshop will demonstrate how to use church parish records, Griffith’s Valuation, Tithe Applotment Books, and other early 19th Century sources to uncover your Irish ancestors. Participants will learn about Ireland’s civil and religious jurisdictions and why this knowledge is essential in locating your Irish ancestors. A case study will be used to illustrate the various ways to determine family relationships prior to the start of the Civil Registration process.
