Did you know that one-third of all US presidents have ancestral links to Ulster? Or that people of Ulster descent are living today all over the world: from Canada to Chile, from Australia to Argentina?

So, how do you start with exploring Ulster genealogy? ‘Getting started with Ulster genealogy’, is a workshop aimed at people who want to learn more about their Ulster ancestors. From church records to land records, from censuses to wills, we will talk you through the main archives that are available both online and in repositories such as the Public Records Officer of Northern Ireland. We will also help you negotiate the lesser well known eighteenth and early nineteenth century records.
