About



This blog was created to share some information and links for those researching their Irish Family Roots.



I have traced my Irish Family to Chicago, and through Ship Lists, Census's and Obituries I have been able to find My Irish Ancestors final resting places, (and have been able to visit these Graves to pay my respects.)


Likewise, I have traced some Graves in Mayo for some of the Irish Diaspora in various countries.



I would like to be able to offer advice and assistance for people who wish to try to discover their Mayo roots.

Emigration Records, Ships Lists

Useful tool for checking your Ancesors if they have emigrated through Ellis Island

This is a free search (just requires registration), you can verify it is your relative as the townland is usually listed.  You may also note that a few from the same townland travel together.
This also shows the address that your Ancestor travelled to the States, so you can check the US Census for further information
