WHY TAKE OUT AN ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION WITH ROOTS IRELAND?

  • RootsIreland holds the most complete and most accurate set of Roman Catholic church records online, as well as numerous Protestant records, civil records, census records, headstone inscriptions and census substitutes. Our index is easily searchable and has features such as standardised surname and forename searches which make your searches even more user-friendly.
  • We hold over 23 million records, and our database is being added to continually. In 2022, we added over 57,000 records to our database from Monaghan, Tipperary, Westmeath, Galway and Kerry. More records will be coming soon, including further Monaghan and Kerry records.
  • Together, our 34 genealogy centres have an unparalleled amount of local knowledge which can be invaluable to those tracing their ancestors, a service which no other website or company can provide to such a high standard. By taking out a subscription with RootsIreland, you are helping these centres to continue to provide a world-class service and securing many Irish jobs.
