Limerick Ancestry
« on: Saturday 28 August 04 17:47 BST (UK) »
Can anyone tell me what has become of the Limerick Ancestry centre. I know they used to do family searches, but appear to have shut down. I have a couple of people I want to find out about, but am not able to do so in person. Any suggestions?

According to the Irishroots site the centre in Limerick has closed because of lack of funding

Maybe some of the online records for Limerick will help you find some info on your ancestors

Hi,

My website has some links I found useful tracing Limerick people as well as other counties.

http://wexlababe.home.att.net/griffiths_valuation_search_form.htm does a search of the Griffiths valuation. broken link

http://www.celticcousins.net/ireland/ Celtic cousins has Limerick links.

https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/csi/csi_main.cfm central signposting has some records from Limerick. broken link

Regards

Kate

Hi Kate, thanks for the website details.
I looked on the irish geneology website you mentioned, and I came up with 2 possible John Mullanes (1850 and 1852), listed and a possible Michael Mullane (his father's name as stated on his marriage certificate). All of them come under Limerick ancestry. How could I retieve these records? Re-problem with the irishroots centre in Limerick being closed.

REGISTER ON, (ROOTS IRELAND) ,
(IRISH FAMILY HISTORY CENTER),
ON THE INTERACTIVE MAP SELECT LIMERICK.

ENTER THE FAMILY NAME,
FIRST NAME ENTER 3 %%% SIGNS ONLY, THE WILD CARD.

IF YOU PUT IN THE FIRST NAME OF THE PARENTS,
ALLTHE CHILDREN WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN TOGETHER.

USE +/- 20 YEARS FOR ALL THE CHILDREN
TO BE ON THE SCREEN TOGETHER

THEN SELECT THE PARISH FROM THE DROP DOWN MENU,
IF YOU SELECT THE WRONG PARISH THE SCREEN WIL GO BLANK,
WHEN YOU SELECT THE RIGHT PARISH, IT WILLCOME ALIVE AGAIN.
