Findmypast expert and family historian Brian Donovan is here to tell you that although Irish family history can be tricky in places, there are other things to try to help you find your ancestors and get your family tree growing. Searching Irish historical records can be tough, many Irish life records are still held in churches, and many census records were lost in a fire. Luckily there are other sources you can use to find your family history.

I know from my family history that my Great Grandmother Janet Thain who wed Alex Burnett was from Rathvan, Banffshire, Scotland, and My Several times Great Grandmother Elizabeth Dick who wed Donald Sim was from Perthshire, Scotland. I have yet to find the city though. I also have a great-grandfather whose last name was Cochran from Armaguh County Ireland. I don't have any more information on him yet though. I will be getting help from the public library where I live on the 4th Friday of August, which is the 24th, 2023. My family Tree is very fascinating to me! And I hope to get to both Countries soon.
What a fabulous presentation. I learned more about my ancestors life situations. Thanks so much
This has been AMAZING thank you so much!!
I am inspired to try again to work out how on earth to get records from the Irish Constabulary as two of my (unrelated) Irish ancestors had joined up before leaving Ireland for Australia in 1856 and 1863. Also that information about the Irish language may prove useful as I have ancestors from Galway, Monaghan, Letterkenny & Lake Donegal, as well as Dublin and Carlow. (with others I have not been able to trace back at all). So three area that are within the Irish language regions you have identified. Could lead to a breakthrough?!
Very interesting and informative! I can't wait to share what I've learned with my daughter who's handling the family tree while I research family lore, create a timeline, and thoroughly enjoy wallowing in history. Thank you!
Fascinating. I had my DNA tested. 63% Irish, 35% Scottish and 2% English. We are a hybrid people.
What a great lecture this was I could listen to him for hours thank you so much I want to know more I'm second generation of Irish I'm amazed at what I learned
thank you for the education....well done and very informative
Thank you very much!
Surnames can be a real stumbling block, because we are often having to cope with someone writing down what they THOUGHT they heard, and not being familiar with how that was commonly spelled where the person in front of them came from,, even when that meant an English-speaking part of Ireland. Then there is a tendency for people from Ireland to be very "economical with the truth" when it comes to ages.....
My patronymic is Keoughan, and my family emigrated to Nova Scotia in the 1800’s. I would love to know more about them. I especially would love to know where they came from in Ireland. Can you help ?
I have learned more from you regarding how to locate many of my ancestors who came from Ireland.
That's so great Sally :)
Can a piece be done on the Irish in Jamaica. This history is always being left out.
Wow, so informative! Off to start digging... I may be some time :)
Thank you vary much, you open my eyes, god bless always
This is great! I have been having such a hard time with all these records! However, I do have one question: the records they filled out to find those they had given loans to, what are those records called?
Thank you!!!!!
Brilliant! Can we have more depth by taking each section and doing a presentation purely on those records please? Thank you.
I agree...more specificity would be great!!
My great grandparents surnames were Hone and they and my ancestors lived for centuries around the Oxfordshire and Warwickshire area and I was just wondering if this means they have any relation, whether distant or not with the Anglo-Irish Hone family who can trace their origins back to Samuel Hone from Marlborough. If anyone could help me I would greatly appreciate it.
I find it funny Irish rebels destroyed those record. Imagine the descendant of one of those rebels doing family history. Can't find your great great-grandfather because he blew up the records.
Still cannot find a correct 1795 Dalton. Otherwise I have more dog licences, I managed to copy some documents - confirmation certificates, that a great aunt had retained before she got dementure and set fire to everything. There are now charred tax records and will records in Ireland that throw up a few bits. Military Records from c18th can be found, sometimes misfiled , in UK records at the National Archives. Most of Irish Church records are in Latin or Latinised. i visited Co Waterford an obscure sea harbour place in the 1980s and the locals spoke Irish. But many in the family moved from / to Scotland and London for 300 years.
My surname is morris. My family is from Kells co. Meath. I think.
I need to find my family link before 1700's with the name of o' maoilmheana or mulvany
I wouldn’t say Irish are as varied as any other country. Our dna has pretty much been partially isolated from others for many years thanks to our position as an island off the coast of Europe instead of being part of mainland.
Do you live in Ireland ? My great grandfather immigrated from Ireland to the US .Duke was his last name
