St Patrick's Day deliveries from FindMyPast.ie

FindMyPast.ie has created and released an index + transcriptions record set to a collection of Waterford County Burials Registers. The registers are from three cemeteries: St Carthage's in Lismore, St Declan's in Ardmore, and (producing more that 15,000 index entries) St Otteran's. The latter is also known as Ballinaneeshagh and is located two miles to the west of Waterford City.

The records span 1862 to 2006.

These registers have been freely available (with others) as unindexed pdf images for some years on the website of Waterford City and County Archives, so if you don't have a findmypast subscription, you could browse through them here.

In addition, a new, free collection of Views of Ireland has been uploaded. Comprising 117 photos (some colourised) and illustrations dating from the 19th century, they take in some of the island's most beautiful scenery.

They capture landscapes in 17 counties: Antrim, Clare, Cork, Donegal, Dublin, Fermanagh, Galway, Kerry, Kilkenny, LondonDerry, Louth, Mayo, Sligo, Waterford and Wicklow.
