Hi, - me again - couldn't resist having another 'quick look' - if you go to the home page - address as I gave but after the (.)com just add /index.html - The site covers the whole of Ireland, LOTS of different newspapers for all counties, and goes back at least to 1750'sh !!!!! Wish I had someone in Ireland. Hope it helps someone. Dea. x |

Hi, It's of no use to me as I have no Irish relatives but while I was looking up something for someone else , I stumbled across a website called www(.)irelandoldnews(.)com/Mayo/1849/NOV.html. The pages I looked at were wonderful complete copies of the 'Ballina Chronicle' dating back to 1849. This included births, deaths, marriages - court proceedings, murders and LOTS more. I didn't explore what else was in there or if it covered any other newspapers but if you have an Irish connection you MUST go and have a look. It's fascinating - I will go back to read it just as a piece of 'social history' when I get the time. Dea. x |
