From 1801 to 1922, the modern Republic of Ireland was part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, with Northern Ireland remaining a UK member to this day. Various repositories contain material that can help to flesh out the stories of those seeking work in Britain which may, in some cases, plug gaps resulting from missing records in Ireland. These include census substitutes such as the Ulster Covenant, British poor law records and removals back to Ireland, civil registration records in Britain. For British-administered territories overseas, censuses and other documentary sources can be valuable in your research. Chris will explore the records of the Irish in Britain and show how they can help you to in your Irish family history research.

One does not convince a jury by presenting only one piece of evidence.
It is the sum of the evidence that creates the proof.
