2:00 pm to 4:00 pm
via Zoom
The Southeastern Branch of the New Brunswick Genealogical Society will hold a regular meeting Saturday, November 16, 2024, at 2:00 P.M. (Atlantic Time). This will be an online meeting only. All NBGS Members will receive an email invitation to the Zoom meeting prior to the date.
We will have Ken McKinlay present “Beginner’s Irish Genealogy Research”. “As anyone who has had the opportunity to research their ancestors who came from Ireland can well attest to, it can be a challenge. It isn’t just the missing records that can make it difficult, but also the partition of the island into the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. In this presentation we go back to the basics. We look at a bit of the history that has created some of these challenges, some of the key sites that hold the records, and a few tips to possibly help us over our Irish genealogy brick walls."
