General Alphabetical Index to the Townlands and Towns, Parishes and Baronies of

The Famine Immigrants
Gives data on over a half a million people who left Ireland for America from 1846 to
1851: name, age, sex, family relationship (where noted), occupation, and when the
person sailed, on what ship, and from which port. (seven book set)
Margaret Dickson Falley
Irish and Scotch-Irish Ancestral Research
Considered the best single tool for Irish genealogical research. (two volumes)
Volume I ‘describes genealogical collections and indexes in all major Irish repositories,
as well as published indexes, catalogues and source materials in Ireland and the United
States.
Volume II contains bibliographies of family histories, pedigrees and source data.
Brian Mitchell

alphabetical index.
