New Census records added to Irish Genealogical Online Record Search System

The Irish Family History Foundation's Online Research Service (ORS) are pleased to announce the availability of the 1821 census records for the Parish of Forkhill, Co. Armagh.

Armagh Ancestry has now computerised the 1821 Census for the parish of Forkhill. A copy of the 1821 Forkhill Parish Census was found in an old house a few years ago and it has 6344 individuals listed. For those with ancestry in Forkhill parish this is an immense source. Armagh Ancestry is in the process of computerizing the remaining surviving remnants of the 1821 Census for county Armagh.
It is anticipated this will be completed by the end of 2008 and will be added to our online records.
