Irish Genealogy Research Luncheon

Researching Irish family roots can be quite a challenge. It can be difficult to discover where in Ireland your ancestors are from. And once you do, records in Ireland are very limited.

The Godfrey Memorial Library is holding a luncheon at the Playwright Irish Pub in Hamden on September 17th for those who would like to learn about their Irish ancestors. Godfrey is a genealogy library. Speakers at the luncheon will describe basic steps of genealogy and specific records and databases essential for Irish research.

Genetic Genealogist Jennifer Zinck will explain how DNA is one of the most powerful tools to help determine your place of origin. She will discuss available tests, testing companies , and how personal genomics can help you advance your family history when the paper trail runs out.

Enjoy delicious Irish fare as you learn how to find your Irish ancestors. September 17th, 11-2 at the Playwright Irish Pub in Hamden. $25.
