IFHS Lecture on Roman catholic parish records

On 4 September 2021, the IFHS continued its series of lectures via Zoom. Our own Joan Sharkey, Honorary Treasurer of the Society, and a Member of AGI had prepared a detailed and very informative presentation on the Irish Roman Catholic Parish Records. The international audience of 30 participants learned what could be found where, and what to look for to get the most out of the records. After the presentation, Joan also answered the questions of the audience.
