Is Autumn calling you Home to the Little Hills?

Back in May, I advised of two four-day training courses taking place in Monaghan in October (blogpost here). Since October is now just around the corner, it's time for any shilly-shalliers to get themselves booked in. The courses start on Monday 14 October in Monaghan Town and Monday 21 October in Carrickmacross.

They both cover pretty much the same ground, as you'd expect, although to a different schedule and with different field trips to reflect the distinct locations. But both promise to provide a grounding in family history research via some of Ireland's top genealogy experts, historians and archivists.

Both 4-day programmes run from 9am to 4pm each day with two evening sessions from 7pm to 9pm. In addition to the lectures, one-to-one tutorials and field trips, there's also some cultural entertainment thrown in. Remarkably, all this is on offer for just €50 per delegate.

You can download the detailed programmes below, or book direct on the Monaghan Genealogy website.

Garage Theatre, Monaghan Town, 14–17 October
Carrickmacross Workhouse, 21–24 October.
