Description:
This 100,000 name database of Irish vital records is unique for two main reasons. First,
it represents one of the first major databases of records from outside the continental
United States. This posting represents the beginnings of a vigorous international content
acquisition effort. Second, rather than just raw data, this database is accompanied by a
significant amount of contextual and historical information. This information can help 
researchers understand the significance and the source of the data and also extend their
research beyond the names available in the database. 

This collection is the result of many years of research in Irish records. It contains
records of births, marriages, deaths, burials, cemeteries, wills, immigration, census,
and so forth. It includes records from many different locations in both Ireland and
Northern Ireland and it includes over 120 unique sources. The records include information
from as early as 1600 and as late as 1874. This collection seeks to allow users to search
otherwise inaccessible or hard-to-find collections. Whenever possible, new records were
created from end-of-line records, thereby extending the data into the past at least one
more generation. For example, in a marriage which gives the names of the parents, a record
was created for these parents as a separate entry if it was known that there were no
earlier records for that area. 

Ancestry hopes that this data will prove useful to a great many American researchers.
As the compiler of the database, Dr. Lyman Platt, observed: "Between 1851 and 1901
3,846,393 people emigrated from Ireland. Figures for the years 1891-1900 show that
90% of these emigrants settled in the United States. It is estimated that at least
fifty million Americans have one or more Irish lines at this time." Thus, even though
100,000 records is not a major percentage of the total population, it is a good beginning.
For the time periods that many of the records cover, the database includes 20-30% of the
population for that area at that time, and thus represents a significant research file
for the millions of researchers in Irish records. researchers should also note that
Dr. Platt continues to add to the file at the rate of several thousand entries a month.
These additions will be included in quarterly updates.

Description:
Beginning in the nineteenth century, large numbers of Irish natives left the Emerald
Isle seeking new lives around the world. For genealogists unfamiliar with the towns
and parishes of Ireland, research into the lives of these ancestors can be a tedious
search of endless maps and atlases. This database contains a gazetteer of the island
nation and a surname guide intended to help researchers in their study. The gazetteer
contains over 1800 locales and provides the county in which it is located. The surname
guide includes information on the most common Irish surnames. For researchers of Irish
ancestry, this database can be a great aid in locating important information.

Description:
This richly detailed database contains information regarding Quaker immigrants from
Ireland to Pennsylvania. Compiled by Albert Myers, a member of the Pennsylvania
Historical Society, this work narrates the general history of immigration from Ireland
focusing on Quakers who came to the United States. In addition to the historical narrative,
biographies of many immigrants, often containing birth and death dates, as well as some
wills and probate records are included. For the researcher looking for Irish who immigrated
to North America, this can be a tool of great value.
