Irish professional genealogist. Let me help you break down that brickwall! Might also comment on non-genealogy things such as knitting, Strictly, Star Trek, books, history, politics & general Irish stuff. She/Her
The older NAI genealogy site has been offline for a couple of days. There's a banner across the main site but I wonder if this might mean bigger changes afoot. #IrishGenealogy #AncestryHour #GenHour #Genealogy #FamilyHistory

Back from a week's holiday. I'll be cranking up the wheels on work after I get all the washing and shopping done. If you're waiting on an email response: it's coming in the next 48 hrs.
Trees this size always make me nervous! #AncestryHour #GenChat #Genealogy
Unexpectedly in Cork this morning. If I'd known, I would have made plans to meet people.

Was looking for oldies on #1926census & found someone allegedly 99, but look how he seems to have a baby. Closer inspection - 39 not 99, but written weirdly. I'm giving the machine a pass for mixing this one up. nationalarchives.ie/collections/...

The National Archives are such copycats! They now have a countdown clock on their website. I've had one for 6 months!!
Love adding someone to a tree on their birthday! 143 years old today. #IrishGenealogy
Trying to get better at publishing my upcoming events this year. Here's the busy busy April & May. cbgenealogy.ie/april-may-ta...
I love this clip from the Irish Independent (17/4/1926) reporting on a Rotary Club lunch about the upcoming census. Men knew their place even then!
Nice to see the Irish content ramp up in @familytreeplus.bsky.social this month in advance or the new census. @chrismpaton.bsky.social @ryangenealogy.bsky.social I'll be following suit once we get the 1926 release. #IrishGenealogy
Clip of the National Archives' director, Orlaith McBride, talking about the 1926 census. www.rte.ie/radio/radio1... It is this day next month!!
Happy St Patrick's Day to those who are Irish all the time & those who are just Irish today!
