Less than a week to go, still time to sign up! 👇😃
Saturday 30 May, my next Scottish GENES Webinar will take place at 7pm (UK time), entitled Irish Censuses and Substitutes for Ancestral Research. There will be a recording available for a week after the presentation, and a detailed handout with links and information on the records sets discussed. The following is a description:
"In this session genealogist Chris Paton will look at the census records that can help us to locate our ancestors on the island of Ireland. These include religious censuses, the UK decennial censuses, the newly released 1926 Irish Free State census, reconstituted lost census material from secondary sources, the 1922 military census, agricultural censuses, and census substitutes. Whilst many challenges exist due to the loss of records in the Irish Civil War, Chris will show that the glass can be half-full rather than half-empty when it comes to census-based research."
And I'll be covering quite a period, from the 7th century AD to the 20th century, so lots to talk about!!! 😃
