Description:
An effort has been made to bring together many ideas and resources which might be of use to one beginning research in Ireland, or to one who has been researching and is looking for new ideas. This guide was begun as a study group project for the Genealogy Course #33 at Virtual University for the fall 1997 term, and is being added to constantly.
