Registry of Deeds Indexing Project Ireland update

From the Registry of Deeds Index Project Ireland (https://irishdeedsindex.net) is fast approaching the half million entries mark:

Update of 26 September 2021 - 445,105 index records from 46,707 memorials of deeds.

Thanks to the continuing wonderful work of our volunteers we now have 445,105 index records from 46,707 memorials of deeds.

We continue to link more index entries to the associated images on FamilySearch and we now have almost two thirds linked. Moreover, all index entries for memorials in books 85 and below are linked. This means it is very quick to access the transcription book check the indexing and get more details form the memorail.

Of course all these index entries together with transcription of grantors and townland indexes are fully searchable for free at: https://irishdeedsindex.net/search/search.php

 

The Registry of Deeds, as well as the Land Registry and Land Commission records, are just some of those discussed in my newly released book, Tracing Your Irish Ancestors Through Land Records. A very useful record set indeed!
