RootsIreland.ie adds 59,000 Limerick records

RootsIreland.ie has added more than 59,000 records to its Limerick Genealogy database. They come from a range of sources.

While some of the new collections are available on other websites (some of them free), all will have been transcribed independently of other databases and by local people who recognise names and placenames, and in so doing create a fresh and always welcome new index.
