This website is informed by data collected from diverse sources, which are also presented as an aid to your own research.  Due to the paucity of Civil records before 1922, many researchers have encountered extreme difficulty in reliably tracing their ancestors, because they cannot link to earlier generations.

The path indicated in the diagram, below, will enable the visitor to follow the author’s progress in critical analysis of available data and assignment of membership to the earliest families in Sligo and Leitrim.

As the site develops, it is hoped that further generations can be linked and that, through stimulation of collaboration, similar activities can be undertaken for the remaining counties of Ireland. To this end, I have included (in the Data Sources) family groupings for each county, extracted from the 1901 Census as well as “google maps” which show the family locations.
