Book - Your Irish Ancestors, A Guide For Family Historians
By Ian Maxwell
Aimed primarily at the family and social historian, Ian Maxwell's highly readable guide introduces researchers to the wealth of material available in archives throughout Ireland. Many records, like the early twentieth century census returns and school registers will be familiar to researchers, but others have been traditionally overlooked by all but the most experienced genealogists. Each chapter takes the form of a detailed social history showing how the lives of our ancestors changed over the centuries and how this is reflected in the records that have survived, and it is in this broad historical approach that Ian Maxwell's work stands out from other guides to Irish genealogy.

BOOKS - The People of Ireland 1600-1699, Part One & Part Two
By David Dobson
This work draws on primary sources, such as published government records, together with references found in Irish, English, Scottish, and Dutch archives. The single most important source used in this work is the series of published Calendar of State Papers relating to Ireland. The aim of this series, is to provide information on ordinary people throughout 17th-century Ireland. The people listed here are predominantly of native Irish and immigrant English origin, as well as a handful of Huguenot and Dutch immigrants. Dr. Dobson provides sketches of about 3,200 inhabitants of Ireland (1400 + 1800) in the 17th century. Softcover.
