Ulster Historical Foundation - Migration Memorial, Genealogy Hub, and Books Bundle

From the Ulster Historical Foundation (www.ancestyireland.com):

Invest in our future - Migration Memorial and Genealogy Hub

Ulster Historical Foundation would like to develop an Irish Migration Memorial where interested parties can commemorate a specific ancestor, or family line that they have been researching. By supporting our proposed Migration Memorial you would also be contributing to the development of our "Genealogy Hub" - a dedicated research centre, library and lecture facility based in Northern Ireland.

The Migration Memorial itself would be in the form of a tree on which members of the public can sponsor a leaf in memory of their ancestors. A tree and leaves we believe are particularly appropriate motifs in relation to immigration and family history.

Irish ancestors research book bundle

At this time of great uncertainty and as many of us find ourselves having to isolate from the outside world, might we suggest that now might be the time to do the family history research that we always intended to do?

To this end, we have added a collection of core genealogy publications - our Irish Ancestors Research Bundle - to our online bookstore. All three books included in this bundle fully complement each other and are highly valuable resources to help guide your research.

We would recommend these titles to anyone with even a fleeting interest in researching their Irish family history.

(With thanks to the Ulster Historical Foundation - and I'm honoured to have my book included in their bundle!)
