6 Historical Irish Jurisdictions Genealogists Should Know About: familytreemagazine.com/heritage/irish… @PoloniaGen

What is the big grocery store in Ireland/ the recommended one?

@Ryan_Genealogy Bingo!

@Ryan_Genealogy Oh that’s good to know!

So I'm looking for this plot of land. Looking at Kiltegan townland I can't seem to find a 19... stops at 12. What am I missing?

@TiaBruhn Yep! Looking at it now!

@PoloniaGen I think it is missing on the map might be another page to it ? And see David’s suggestion.

@Ryan_Genealogy @KayleighHistory @Safaripark_BB No @jahboeren hasn’t taken me yet! It’s something I would love to do.

@KayleighHistory @Safaripark_BB I've been looking for an excuse to visit friends in Tilburg and good to know something like this is nearby. @PoloniaGen have you been here?

Woops this goes with it. the townland map

@DSRGenealogist Tell me what you include. I'd be curious. Even typing it out has made be see gaps. I didn't notice until now that there's a gap between Baptismal records which would be why I only have 4 kids in this family.

Currently I'm working on "Ancestor sheets" that I can use while I'm researching in Dublin. Now realizing how this could be a useful tool to record my research. (I have never liked research logs)

I just found these two records. familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1… and familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1… I'm not too sure what's in them but these may have to do with my 4th great grandfather Edmund Condon. Not sure if there's a way in Ireland I could get these records.

I was hoping that my previous tweet would be all things I already had (its about 80%), but the book of kells I missed!

What are must see things in Dublin?

@Ryan_Genealogy @irishhistory I can imagine. You'd think there would be privacy laws and other things that would protect projects that document difficult history like this.

@PoloniaGen @irishhistory This incident had a massive impact on oral history in Ireland and how it was collected.

bbc.com/news/uk-northe… I have been listening to @irishhistory to better understand my Irish roots. I am currently listening to an episode about this event (more current event than history but crazy). Oral history can't be used as police evidence!

@DSRGenealogist Maybe a still birth that wasn’t recorded? I have that on my Italian lines, my 2nd great grandmother had 2 stillborn sons before her 1st son survived, so she named that son after her dad, which isn’t traditional naming custom.

@postcarddaily Fair point

@PoloniaGen I’d be on the fence between Moher and Maher as the “o” in “Moher” looks like what we know to be an “a” in Fitzgerald.

I will say church records in Ireland are uhm. Interesting. Anyway, I believe the green underline is Thomas Fitzgerald and Ellen Moher. Although my mind is easily changed and I'm curious what others think.

@PoloniaGen I can't even read the year :-O

@danielmloftus Yay I can read Irish :P

@PoloniaGen Nope, I’d say that’d be pretty accurate.
