The Irish World Heritage Centre has a stunning new home in Irishtown, Manchester |
Hosted by the Irish World Heritage Centre at its fabulous new headquarters in the north of the city, the event will be held over three days in the week before St Patrick's Day (Thursday 13 to Saturday 15 March).
One-to-one sessions are available to help beginners start their family history and to offer guidance to those who are a little further along with their research but may be struggling or need a new direction. These private consultations with a professional genealogist cost just £5 each.
A series of talks will be also be presented, as follows:
Thursday 13th March - 10.00am
How to research your Irish ancestors, with Helen Kelly MAPGI
Friday 14th March - 10.00am
Online sources for Irish research, with Nicola Morris MAPGI
Saturday 15th March - 10.00am
Civil registration, with Steven Smyrl MAPGI
This is a unique opportunity for anyone of Irish heritage to access professional genealogy guidance at a minimal price. Please call Margot Power on 0161 2054007 to book talks (£3 each) or a private consultation, or both.
UPDATE 6 March: This is proving a very popular event. Be sure to book your consultation before all slots have gone.
