Chinese directories and Californian papers
Ken Nisbet of SAFHS (www.safhs.org.uk) has been in touch to flag up two potentially useful collections for some overseas research.
As part of the University of Bristol's Chinese Maritime Customs project, a range of digitised resources are available in the China Coast Family History section at www.bris.ac.uk/history/customs/ancestors/. These include some foreign burials in cemeteries in places such as Shanghai, Hantow and Swatow (where one of my grandfather's cousins worked for many years as a missionary!), trade directories, and British Shanghai Supreme Court probate files.
Ken's also flagged up a useful resource for those with Californian connections, at http://cdnc.ucr.edu/cdnc. This hosts a series of free to access digitised newspapers from the 19th-21st centuries.
(With thanks to Ken)

Google map for Scottish Archives
Thanks to genealogist Kirsty Wilkinson and the RCAHMS for the heads up on Twitter about a new Google map created by the Scottish Council of Archives, which lists all the major Scottish archives.
From the council's news page:
Many thanks to those who contacted us with updated contact details and suggestions. The Scottish Archives Google map has now been updated and revised. Although each entry was also checked against the details of each service's website, there may still be some entries in need of correction.
We did not include photos of each service in the entries at this stage- many existing photos on Google were inaccurately linked to locations. If you think that it would be helpful to include photos in each entry, please let us know and we can consider this for future revisions. We also did not include opening times in each entry- we've just placed a link to each service's website to refer users on to further contact details and opening hours.
You can find a link to the updated map here: Scottish Archives Google Map
Definitely one to bookmark!

Ancestry's new Irish collections
It's time for Saint Paddy's day fever to kick in, so here's Ancestry's official announcement on several new Irish collections now available on its site:
DEFINITIVE COLLECTION OF 19th CENTURY IRISH RECORDS LAUNCH ONLINE
One in five Brits has Irish Ancestry – new research
* Comprehensive pre and post Irish Potato Famine collections now online
* New research published ahead of St Patrick’s Day celebrations on 17th March
* Irish ancestors of Oscar Wilde, Walt Disney, JFK and Barack Obama uncovered
In honour of St. Patrick’s Day, Ancestry.co.uk, the UK’s favourite family history website, today launched The Irish Collection - the definitive online collection of 19th century historical Irish records, making it easier for the nearly one in five Brits of Irish descent to explore their heritage.
In total, there are now more than 35 million historical Irish records on Ancestry.co.uk, including two million comprehensive new and upgraded records from the critical periods prior to and following the Irish Potato Famine (1845-1852), the single most significant event to drive 19th century global Irish Diaspora.
Current Chancellor George Osborne, Wayne Rooney, Pete Doherty and Paul McCartney are amongst the 9.5 million Brits with Gaelic roots for whom these new collections will be of particular interest.
Amongst the collections is the Ireland, Tithe Applotment Books, 1824-1837, featuring more than 600,000 Irish land tax records which are a crucial addition to The Irish Collection as they cover all of pre-famine Ireland, creating a snapshot of Irish life prior to mass emigration.
Griffith’s Valuation of Ireland, 1848-1864 now features more than 2.5 million names and addresses in land tax records of people living in Ireland in the mid-19th century. They are especially valuable as a substitute for 19th century censuses of Ireland, most of which were destroyed during the Civil War.
Crucially, the Griffith’s Valuation of Ireland, 1848-1864 collection covers the years of the famine, which plunged Ireland into crisis and resulted in more than one million Irish dying and a further million emigrating, marking the start of Ireland’s depopulation throughout the remainder of the 19th century.
The Lawrence Collection of Photographs, 1870-1910 features more than 20,000 photographs of Irish people and scenes taken between 1870 and 1910. Lawrence himself was an amateur photographer and entrepreneur who saw the potential of selling photographic portraits and landscapes.
Also now online is the Ordnance Survey Maps, 1824-1846 - almost 2,000 historic maps of Ireland featuring incredible early geographical details of the whole country, revealing how Ireland evolved during the mid-19th century as well as linking directly to other collections available to reveal exact locations of where land was owned and by whom.
The records of a number of famous Brits with Irish ancestry have been discovered in The Irish Collection. These include the Irish ancestors of leading British politicians such as current Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne, who is heir to the Osborne baronetcy of Ballentaylor in County Tipperary. His 3x great-grandfather Sir Henry Osborne can be found in the Tithes.
Many key political figures in history have in fact boasted Irish ancestry, although just 17 per cent of British Prime Ministers have been Irish descent. Irish immigrants across the pond have been far more successful in achieving political influence, with more than a quarter (27 per cent) of American Presidents claiming Irish roots, including John F. Kennedy, whose 2x great-grandfather Patrick Kennedy is listed in Griffiths living in Wexford, Ireland, and U.S. President Barack Obama, whose 4x great-grandfather Fulmuth Donavan is listed in the Tithes living in Ballygurleen, Tipperary in 1829.
Other famous names with Irish ancestors revealed in the new collections include:
* Oscar Wilde - William R. Wilde, father of world famous author of The Picture of Dorian Gray, is listed in Griffiths living at Westland Row, Dublin where Oscar Wilde was born in 1854.
* Walt Disney - Arundel Elias Disney, great-grandfather of the entertainer and founder of the Disney empire, is listed in Griffiths and Tithe records living in Clone, Rathbeagh and Kilkenny.
* C. S. Lewis - Sir John Borlasse Warren, great-grandfather of the celebrated author of The Chronicles of Narnia is listed in both the Griffiths and Tithe records.
Despite the many famous names heralding from Ireland, research reveals that when Brits think of Ireland, they actually think of Guinness (74 per cent of people) followed by shamrocks (62 per cent) and leprechauns (61 per cent).
Surprisingly even comedy show Father Ted is more strongly associated with Ireland than the country’s musical heritage, which has seen Ireland win the Eurovision song contest seven times (more than any other nation) .
Ancestry.co.uk International Content Director Dan Jones comments: “The new collections will be hugely relevant to anyone with Irish ancestry as they may hold the earliest or final record of their ancestors’ existence during these tragic yet nation-defining years in Ireland’s history.
“The Irish Potato Famine was a significant event in world history which caused a huge spike in international emigration from across Ireland – meaning today, people from every corner of the globe may find they have Irish ancestry.”
Those wishing to discover or learn more about their Irish ancestors can do so with a 14-day free trial at www.ancestry.co.uk/Irishrecords.

Unlock the Past's first genealogy cruise now underway
Australian based Unlock the Past's first genealogy cruise is now underway, sailing for seven days from Brisbane, to Noumea (New Caledonia), Lifou (New Caledonia), and Vila (Vanuatu) and back. The company's sister organisation Gould Genealogy has blogged about the trip at www.gouldgenealogy.com/2011/03/unlock-the-pasts-first-history-and-genealogy-cruise-sets-sail/
Later in the year, I'll be joining the team for a fourteen day genealogy cruise from Australia to New Zealand and back. The cruise will be focussed to an extent on a Scottish and Irish theme, with many speakers including Shauna Hicks, Jan Gow, Rosemary Kopittke, Perry McIntyre, Richard Reid, Keith Johnson, Dan Lynch (providing particular expertise on online research) and yours truly. As well as being a lot of fun in the genealogical sense, I'm also bringing my wife and two boys, each of whom will be celebrating a birthday on board! I haven't told them that their job is to row the boat yet though!
For more on the next cruise visit www.unlockthepast.com.au/events/history-and-genealogy-cruise-november-2011-scottish-irish-theme - and keep an eye on Gould Genealogy's blog for a future news update on the present cruise! Bon voyage all!

FindmyPast relaunches overseas BMDs
FindmyPast (www.findmypast.co.uk) has updated its search facility for its overseas BMD records. These are the records of overseas consulates, army chaplains and more, the records of which can be ordered up from the GRO in England using a separate search form at www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/default.asp, though using a different order form to the standard BMDs.
Although available from the English GRO, these records affect all British citizens with connections overseas. For example, my 2 x great grandmother Florence Halliday was discovered in the 1911 Irish census to have been born in Gibraltar, to parents who married in Corfu, one of whom was born in Ireland, the other in the East Indies. Both her birth certificate and her parents' marriage were found within the army records held within these collections and were ordered up from the GRO down south.
The collections updated are:
• British overseas births 1818-2005
• Births at sea 1854-1887
• British armed forces births 1761-2005
• British overseas marriages 1818-2005
• Marriages at sea 1854-1908
• British armed forces marriages 1796-2005
Where before you did a search and then had to browse through umpteen different pages, now the names on all the collections are fully searchable. If I look for Florence now in the British armed forces births collection, she is the first name returned. The company's recently launched MarriageFinder tool has now also been applied to these overseas marriages. Again in the British overseas marriages collection a search of Alexander Halliday and his wife Teresa immediately comes up trumps.
FindmyPast has a fuller blog post on this itself at http://blog.findmypast.co.uk/2011/03/vastly-improved-overseas-at-sea-and-army-births-and-marriages-search/ NB: the final part of the reindexing project is also due imminently, English death records.

PRONI updates NameSearch
As announced on this blog on Feb 28th, the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland has been working on an update to its online Name Search collection, which has now gone online. Name Search is a database mainly comprised of pre-1858 wills entries, some census substitutes form the 18th century and cornoers' inquests.
The following comes from the Northern Ireland Direct website at http://www.nidirect.gov.uk/news-mar11-online-historical-records-facility-updated
Adding nearly 53,000 entries to its internet resource, these eight additional pre-1858 will indexes (some as early as 1608) are for the dioceses of Armagh, Clogher, Connor, Down and Kilmore. The index to coroners’ inquest reports now runs from 1872-1919.
The Name Search includes indexes to:
pre-1858 wills
surviving fragments of the 1740 and 1766 religious census returns
1775 dissenters’ petitions
coroners’ inquest reports
You can view the Name Search at the following link: www.proni.gov.uk/index/search_the_archives/proninames.htm
If you haven't yet watched it, the following interview I did with Janet Hancock from PRONI at WDYTYA Live 2011 may be of interest!

UPDATE: Further information from Gavin McMahon at PRONI
On 11th March a major new update to the Name Search facility was launched on the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland (PRONI) website. Eight further pre-1858 will indexes have been added, containing around 53,000 new entries and the index to coroners’ inquests has been extended by ten years to 1920.
These entries are in addition to the pre-1858 administration bond indexes, fragments of the 1740 and 1766 religious census returns and 1775 dissenters petitions already available on Name Search. The application now provides a searchable index to thousands of records as early as 1608. The new indexes cover the dioceses of Armagh, Clogher, Connor, Down and Kilmore. Given the loss of census records for Ireland prior to 1901, these records will be of great interest to genealogists tracing their family tree as far back as the 17th century.
Although most pre-1858 wills do not survive, the indexes provide information of use to genealogists, such as the names of the deceased, their address, the date of the grant of probate or administration and occasionally their occupation. Previously users would have to come to PRONI and spend considerable time searching these indexes. Now they are available anywhere in the world and can be searched in seconds.
