Editorial Reviews

Review

This is the largest of the Irish Family works by county. It contains more families than any other work to date, including settler families from England, Scotland, Wales and Europe, as well as the old native Irish families.

The mix of families and history is unique here when compared to the rest of the country. Over 5000 families are found, some with extensive history, others with a mere mention along with date and location of the family in County Dublin. It is the single best place to start uncovering Dublin roots. -- From the Publisher
