Hasta,

Thanks for that - that's brilliant. We'll have to be quick!

When the only result you can get is Internal Server Error it's just not worth the hassle on one of the few days it's not raining.

Still thanks for letting us know.

Hi Sinann, I agree.

It's working fine for me - if you're trying to search the whole database in one go that never really works well with INA, I'm searching Freemans Journal, Irish Press, and Irish Indo at the same time It's a bit slow, but as I am also weeding the garden at the same time, that doesn't bother me

Only trying to search one paper, no joy, I've found it hasn't been working well since the recent revamp.

Just a reminder that many Irish Libraries with Family History Sections have computers with free access to several sites including the Irish Newspaper Archives

I logged on early and kept getting error messages for fairly small-scale searches.

Thank you so much for posting that there was a 'free' day. Had great fun searching for a branch of family that moved from Dundalk, Co. Louth to Waterford City area- several court proceedings, a few marriages and several rather touching obituaries which has meant I had more ideas for future research - eldest son drowned in Wales, several children moved to south coast of England, another son lived in New Zealand and South Africa before joining a sister in England but the biggest surprise was probably the fact that of the 12 children there were only 2 grandchildren even though most of the children married!

However, I did have a few problems using the site-
- selecting the date options resulted in 0 results (even for details I'd just found with a more general search)
- the list of papers covered was not as comprehensive as the papers available from left side of search page
- I couldn't get past 100 items after search was done
