Two experts from Ulster Historical Foundation will help you unlock your Irish and Scots-Irish family history at Queensland Family History Society next February.
You can advance your knowledge of Irish research at this special morning. This event is your gateway to tracing your roots, connecting with your ancestors, and embracing your unique heritage.
The programme looks at the importance of gravestone inscriptions and funerary monuments in Irish research, Irish education and school records, and getting the most out of Griffith’s Valuation.
Visiting expert Fintan Mullan is the Executive Director of the Ulster Historical Foundation. A pioneer in the creation of online resources for Irish research, Fintan has maintained the Foundation’s prominence in digital database developments for Irish genealogy.
He has also managed the production of over 100 publications, including the popular Researching Scots-Irish Ancestors, and has lectured extensively on Irish history and genealogy in the UK, US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
Also giving the talk will be Gillian Hunt, Research Officer with the Ulster Historical Foundation. Gillian is responsible for managing the Foundation’s many genealogical activities.
