10:45 | The Irish National Folklore Collection Online – an Untapped Resource for Genealogy, with Jill Williams FIGRS |
11:45 | The Registry of Deeds and the Progress of the Online Indexing Project, with Rosalind McCutcheon FIGRS, IGRS Vice-President |
13:00 | Lunch - a finger buffet with wine and soft drinks |
14:15 | IGRS AGM |
15:30 | Close |
There's a fee for attending the Open Day – £25 for members / £30 for non-members, which includes refreshments, lectures + lunch. The AGM is free, and while anyone can attend the AGM, only members can vote.
