Irish Genealogy Workshop

Join Irish genealogy experts Fintan Mullan and Gillian Hunt from the Ulster Historical Foundation in Belfast for an enhanced workshop featuring new and different topics on the rich genealogical sources found in Ireland. Benefiting beginners and seasoned genealogists alike, this in-depth workshop will examine a multitude of historic records and electronic resources that will enrich your Irish genealogy research.

Along with experts from the Ulster Historical Foundation, representatives from the Detre Library & Archives of the Heinz History Center, the Westmoreland County Historical Society and other local genealogical societies will also be on hand to share best practices and tips with visitors and fellow researchers. Attendees will also have the opportunity to attend a special curator-led tour of the History Center’s Irish American collection on display within the museum’s fourth floor Special Collections Gallery.

This workshop is offered in partnership with the Westmoreland County Historical Society.
