Each issue focuses on a different
county in Ireland. January’s issue focuses on County Westmeath and gives many
ideas on finding your Westmeath ancestors. There are details on the Dun na Si
Heritage Centre for genealogical research. Libraries & archives are
discussed. It suggests a visit to
Athlone Castle which has been renovated recently. Kevin McCormack has an
article about Valuation Records. John Martin writes about Railways in Local and
Family History. This issue also includes: Book reviews, Tips on Family Artifacts,
Identifying Family Photos, the Importance of Flags & Emblems, information
on The Gathering & more.
Reading the magazine is free. I like to read it in PDF
format. I even enjoy the advertisements!
If you are interested in Irish research and you read this you won’t be disappointed.
