Ireland Research Resources

Question

Some recommendations for research that I recently found. I hope that they're new to you too, and that you'll find more information about your ancestors.

"Surnames in County Down" by A. Hume which analyzes the 1852 voter survey list providing surname variations, frequency and locations of surnames, and other information. It includes a map that shows the location of many of the surnames.
Surnames in the County Down; "The Ulster Journal of Archaeology" Volume 6, Archer and Sons, Belfast; 1858  pp. 76ff
Lots of other interesting articles!

Sorry that my citation wasn't clear. The article is included in the Ulster Journal beginning on page 76.

Thanks for the link to the main database!

Answer 1

I'm not sure if any of these resources will be of benefit to me but no doubt some other WikiTreer will use them to benefit their own history.

I hope so!

Answer 2

Presumably you have seen the Ireland Project's Resources page?

Perhaps you wish to have these added?

Yes, it would be great if someone would add them.
