Ireland's Landed Estates website comes back in from the cold

A big thanks to Claire Santry for blogging that the Landed Estates database from NUI Galway is back up and running, after an absence of several months. 

The site, available at www.landedestates.ie, documents the ownership of estates in the provinces of Munster and Connacht from 1700-1914, and can be searched by the names of families, houses, estates, or via an interactive map. It's a valuable site, and its return is definitely welcome!
