1.0 out of 5 stars More than a bit of a letdown, April 12, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Co. Meath & Westmeath Ireland Genealogy and family history notes (Spiral-bound)
Whoever is responsible for publishing this book has no idea whatsoever regarding genealogy/family history, and in particular in an Irish setting. The amount of incorrect spelling and unreferenced information is a disgrace. This type of publication should be banned.

This review is from: Co. Meath & Westmeath Ireland Genealogy and family history notes (Spiral-bound)
I found this book very useful! It isnt collection of family histories but more of a hands on guide to finding your family. There are actual records and contacts!!! The author also has a great website Irish Roots Cafe, irishroots.com!

1.0 out of 5 stars Book delivered promptly but poor quality, August 2, 2009
This review is from: Co. Meath & Westmeath Ireland Genealogy and family history notes (Spiral-bound)
I ordered this book second hand, and the company delivered it promptly in the promised condition.

The book itself, however was a grave disappointment. I invested some of limited funds in this book. It actually has very little in it, and the few records included are exclusively about prominent and Catholic families. Two general books on how to do research in Ireland, expensive but so widely available both were found in my Texas public library that doesn't have many books, are much better sources of information, even on County Westmeath.

THE plain of Meath which included the greater parts of the present counties of Meath and Dublin, was known by the name of Magh Breagh, signifying either the Magnificent Plain, or, as mentioned by the Latin writers under the name of Bregia;-the Rev. Dr. O'Connor has translated it on the authority of ancient tradition, Campus Brigantium, or the Plain of the Brigantes, from being possessed by the Brigantes, who were called by the Irish Clanna Breogain. Read the first page
