Noted Wexford Genealogist, David Goodall, has Died.
« on: Monday 25 July 16 15:49 BST (UK) »
David Goodall (1931-2016), a former British diplomat who played a leading role in negotiating the Anglo-Irish Agreement of 1985, and noted genealogist, has passed away. He published extensively on his Wexford forebears, and related families, in the Irish Genealogist - it is in that sense that he was a "Wexford genealogist".  His obituary in the Telegraph fails to note his activities as a senior member of the Irish Genealogical Research Society (IGRS).
