Irish Surname - Genealogy

Those researching specific Irish surnames may find this list of webpages useful. If you are interested in genealogy or family history and your family originated from or passed through Ireland, this is a good place to be looking. You may find some valuable information or just find someone with an interest in the same surname. I'll call these surname links . Sometimes the pages deal with specific families. Sometimes they are for everyone concerned with the surname. I am trying to compile links to those pages for Irish families. I'll try to be inclusive, we may think of a name as being English, Scots, or even German. But if some of those folks passed through Ireland, you may find a link here. These family websites may help you in your search.

If a link here doesn't work or you have a problem with it, let me know. If you know of a page suitable for inclusion which I missed, let me know that too. ( I do want to hear from you if you have such a page.) I'll try to keep this current but that only works if you let me know of problems, changes of address, and more pages that should be added.

Be sure to look for variations on the name you want. Sometimes it's an obvious set like, Connor, Connors, and O'Connor. Or it could be trickier, like Egan, Eagan, MacEgan, Keagan, Keegan, and Hagan. Or how about Gow, McGowan, and Smith?

You might also try a search of the internet . A search with your surname of interest might turn up something interesting. Be creative with your searching a try pairing the name with places or terms such as genealogy, family, or history . Genealogy pages, even online schools databases, may help with your search. Since search engines differ, it will be to your advantage to try several.

Look for the unexpected!

Due to my family's Munster origin, I was especially interested in reading Clan Kennedy's page on Dál gCais origins. Sometimes it is useful to look at names you are not searching as people often have information about other families. I guess my point is that you can pick up some useful information by reading webpages that at first glance may not seem to really apply to you. So look around!

Also if you want, please have a look at my General Irish links or other pages listed in the menu above.

Nearly all of these are external links and will open a new window or tab with most browsers. But if you'll be leaving this site, bookmark it before you go!

Practice Safe Hex

If your computer is on the internet (and yours is if you are looking at this), you need to be careful that it is not infected with viruses, spyware, and so forth. Because computer programs often use hexadecimal numbers this of often called "safe hex". But it no laughing matter to have your computer compromised. Many of us depend on running a computer program to give us safety. Over the years, I trusted several computers to several anti-virus, anti-spyware and firewall programs. Be safe.

Ancestry

I took a trial membership and just loved being able to search census, birth, death records and more from home. So I stayed on. I found a lot on my families. It was pretty simple to quit. I waited a year or so, joined for another trial, found more stuff and a second cousin, and quit again. So if you think you might find this useful, try it.
