Summary:
"The history of Ireland is one that was long dominated by the question of
land
ownership, with complex and often distressing tales over the centuries of dispossession and colonization, religious tensions, absentee landlordism, subsistence farming, and considerably more to sadden the heart. Yet with the destruction of much of Ireland's historic record during the
Irish
Civil War, and with the discriminatory Penal Laws in place in earlier times, it is often within
land
records
that we can find evidence of our
ancestors
' existence, in some cases the only evidence, where the relevant vital
records
for an area may never have been kept or may not have survived.In
Tracing
Your
Irish
Ancestors
Through
Land
Records
, genealogist and best-selling author Chris Paton explores how the surviving
records
can help with our ancestral research, but also tell the stories of the communities from within which our
ancestors
emerged. He explores the often controversial history of ownership of
land
across the island, the rights granted to those who held estates and the plights of the dispossessed, and identifies the various surviving
records
which can help to tease out the stories of many of Ireland's forgotten generations. Along the way Chris Paton identifies the various ways to access the
records
, whether in Ireland's many archives, local and national, and increasingly
through
a variety of online platforms."--Publisher.
