Your Family Tree Magazine Issue 9, March 2004

"This is a huge site that contains around [100] searchable databases aimed at providing Irish ancestry researchers with a valuable online resource. The key to this site is that many of the databases are exclusive as they contain information transcribed from original sources obtained by the Site's developers. These include many 19th Century residential/trade directories, school registers, teachers lists, newspaper transcriptions and many other unusual sources. The databases are divided by region too, making it easy for visitors to hone their research to relevant areas. The site also contains old photos and postcards, research books and details of libraries and research organisations. Some of the databases are free but most require membership...Its a good site with tremendous potential and judging by its research interests page and number of visitors, it is already proving a hit with many family historians."
