Book - The Palatine Families of Ireland - Second Edition
By Henry Z. Jones, Jr.
Representing 30 years of research, this study of the 1710 Palatine immigrants to Ireland includes documentation on 172 different surnames and for 33 of the families there is an added bonus - establishment of their German ancestry - making that vital but difficult link back into Germany.
There is also an addendum on 'possible' Palatine families in Ireland, where documentation is lacking. Many descendants of the 1710 settlers moved later in the 18th century to Canada and America. The Germanic names now often sound 'Irish' and many descendants, whether in Ireland, Canada, or America, are unaware of their heritage.
Reviews:
- "This is an excellent source for information, with no leaps to conclusions, but careful documentation of the material presented." - The Palatine Immigrant.
- "... another essential resource for Palatine genealogy." - The New York Genealogical and Biographical Record.
- "This book provides an excellent history of the whole migration, documentation of 172 different surnames, and the German ancestry of 33 families. Excellent." - The Detroit Society for Genealogical Research Magazine.
- "Rarely does one find such a definitive study in print. Seldom can we be sure that the research is of a quality to be trusted. Here we have both." - Der Kurier, Journal of the Mid-Atlantic Germanic Society.
