[image: UHvideo.jpg] Researching Your Emigrant Ancestors in Irish Records Video <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQbVsbgSplg> from the Ulster Historical Foundation featuring the pre-eminent Dr. William Roulston Over the centuries, millions of people have left Ireland for a new life in another part of the world. With a particular focus on the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, this illustrated presentation explores how we can find out more about our emigrant ancestors from Irish records. The talk will highlight the potential value of church records, census returns, landed estate papers, testamentary papers, workhouse records, gravestone inscriptions, newspapers and Valuation records, to name a few, in helping us to understand when, where, why and how our ancestors left these shores. This video lecture is well worth your attention!

Hi Tracey, I agree with you, the video is very interesting even if it didn't add to my present family knowledge. I'm enjoying the history of their life and times. Gordon in Oz.
