Amazingly early in your research, perhaps with your census or BMD transcripts, you can already start to make the connections between people, places and events that will help you to build an understanding of your place and help others to understand and make use of what you have found. In this presentation, real examples will be used to explore the world of possibilities that exist when you begin to analyse your data and pursue those ‘ah-ha’ moments when new knowledge is unearthed.

Discovering exactly where your Irish ancestors hailed from can be a tricky exercise, especially with the lack of 19th century census returns. However, there is an abundance of other records that can help in your research, and this talk focuses on Griffith’s Valuation and the subsequent Revision (or Cancelled) books – what they are, what they can tell us, and where you can access them. Case studies are used to highlight a range of sources that can help you identify your family in these records, and discover the place where your ancestors left their footprints in Ireland.
