Hello from all of us here at the Irish Family History Centre and welcome to the latest edition of our newsletter!

We hope you're all having a wonderfully festive time this weekend and we've got lots to keep you entertained!

Read on to learn our Research Tip of the week from Expert Genealogist, Carmel Gilbride, who reminds us of the importance of headstones. Also, our Spotlight on Publications this week looks at the stunningly illustrated Atlas and Cyclopedia of Ireland.

We have absolute beginners digging for Ancestral Gold behind the scenes at the IFHC and Fiona's students are doing some fantastic things with their research - read a blog from one in our Student Showcase. We also want to give the kids at the Central Remedial Clinic a huge round of applause on their Gaisce Awards.

Finally, we've got the latest version of our digital magazine, Irish Lives Remembered for you! Our Autumn/Winter 2018 issue is a special edition with double the amount of content to enjoy, and some fantastic articles about World War I, to mark the Centenary of the Armistice last month. It's a really great read, with brilliant pieces from some of the biggest names in Irish Genealogy. 

Enjoy!

SPOTLIGHT ON PUBLICATIONS
This week's Spotlight features the Atlas and Cyclopedia of Ireland. First published in 1905 by Murphy and McCarthy and republished here in fully-searchable format.
This monumental publication is divided into 2 parts and contains 700+ printed pages with hundreds of maps, photos and illustrations for all 32 counties, as well as a republication of A.M Sullivan's Story of Ireland.
Taken as a single publication, it is a very desirable and collectable publication and is an excellent acquisition for the illustrations alone.
