I'm betting a lot of Americans with Irish roots have a nun or two in their family tree. The records kept by convents are amazing, and you're going to want to dig into this book. #IrishGenealogy

So, I bring news! (and it's a first for me) On April 18th, when the 1926 #Census is released to the public - I will be going on TV to Virgin Media One's IrelandAM speaking about the 1926 Census at about 10:45am. I never expected this to happen, but am really looking forward to it! Tune in... 🤗❤️✨

#Genealogy #FamilyHistory How FamilySearch's full-text search revealed a typewritten genealogy manuscript from 1959 with lots and lots of great clues (to be confirmed) to McClure and McFall descendants: #52Ancestors climbingmyfamilytree.blogspot.com/2026/04/full...

As this is the last day of March which is both Women's History Month and Irish-American Heritage Month, I'm sharing links for my book about Annie Moore, the Irish teenager who was the first to arrive at Ellis Island. If you enjoy sleuthing for pockets of history, I think this might appeal to you!

Always remember information in census returns is not necessarily true! My great-aunt said she was born in Canada and her husband in Scotland. They weren't married (he was!) and were both born in Gloucestershire! What fun they had filling that one in! #genealogy ##FamilyHistory

Whoa! So grateful for this lovely profile by Christina Stanton! Henceforce, please refer to me as “the woman who refuses to let history disappear”! ☺️😆☺️ #genealogy www.saturdayeveningpost.com/2026/03/the-...

#Genealogy #FamilyHistory When my aunt served as a WAC in England, France, Belgium during #WWII, she was befriended by a lovely lady in Shropshire. Wartime letters written by that lady to my family illuminate home-front thoughts & feelings climbingmyfamilytree.blogspot.com/2026/03/why-...

One of my odder #genealogy finds was my Czech Horak ancestors in 1880. They had just moved to Jewell County, Kansas that year. It lists their surname as Hork (transcription was Hock), and says they're from France! I found them by going page by page, looking for bigger families and immigrants.

Another big shift in autosomal DNA testing. FamilyTreeDNA is moving to targeted sequencing, meaning more coverage and higher resolution where it matters for genealogy. We’re watching genetic genealogy grow up in real time. I’m especially watching how this impacts distant match discovery. #genealogy

#Genealogy Not everyone coming to America immigrated through Ellis Island! One big takeaway from my great aunt's AR-2 alien registration form, plus her self-reported birth date. Worth $20 to me to learn a few new details #FamilyHistory climbingmyfamilytree.blogspot.com/2026/02/what...

#Genealogy #FamilyHistory #52Ancestors The New York Census asked where/when someone was naturalized. Great clue to look for the documents! But what if no date/place noted for children's citizenship? The year was the big clue, due to change in US law climbingmyfamilytree.blogspot.com/2026/02/what...

Some very good news. And only a few more weeks until the 1926 census release #Genealogy #Ireland
