MyHeritage offers free access to Irish collections until March 22nd

From MyHeritage (www.myheritage.com), a free period of access this month for Irish records, to tie in with Saint Patrick's Day on March 17th and Irish-American Heritage Month:

Embrace Your Irish Heritage

In honor of Irish-American Heritage Month, we're offering free worldwide access to all Irish records on MyHeritage from March 5–22.

We've also built a dedicated web page (https://myheritage.com/irish) that includes fun facts about Irish heritage, information about our Irish collections, and a search bar so users can easily search the free Irish record collections directly from the page. The page also includes engaging content that highlights the tremendous contribution Irish heritage has made to American history and culture. Additional content will be added to the page soon.

You can search the records at https://www.myheritage.com/research/category-Ireland/ireland-genealogy-vital-records
