Workshop in LR on Irish, Scots-Irish family
Want to discover Irish and Scots-Irish ancestors?
Many people believe that researching Irish ancestors is impossible because of the destruction of the Public Record Office in 1922. While many records were destroyed, others survived and large collections have come online in recent years.
Join Fintan Mullan and Gillian Hunt from the Ulster Historical Foundation during their annual USA lecture tour to learn how to get the most out of Irish resources and records, gain strategies for breaking down brick walls, and grasp important historical context that may help fill in gaps in ones research.
A workshop will be held from 6-9 p.m. March 21 at Hillcrest Hall, 1501 Kavanaugh Blvd., Little Rock. The host will be Arkansas Genealogical Society and Butler Center for Arkansas Studies. There is no charge, however, participants may register online at http:// www.butlercenter.org or leave a message for Christopher Stewart at 501-320-5711 or cstewart@cals.org. Seating limited to 150 attendees.
