NIFHS Research Centre extends opening hours

The North of Ireland Family History Society (NIFHS) recently announced that its Research Centre in Newtownabbey, Co Antrim, will be open on the third Saturday of each month. Hours will be 10:30am to 12:30pm, and are in addition to the Society's weekly Tuesday opening: 2pm to 8pm.

The NIFHS has eleven branches across Northern Ireland and volunteers from the Lisburn Branch have stepped up to facilitate the additional weekend opening on a regular basis.

The Randall Gill Libary is part of the Research Centre at the Society's premises at C4, Valley Business Centre, Newtownabbey, where there is plenty of parking. All are welcome to come along to the Centre, to see the Society's many resources (see the Resources section at www.nifhs.org) and to talk to members, who may be able to help with sticky family history research queries.

Date of next Saturday opening is 20 February.
