We examine the record collection for Ireland unique to this country, and the entire United Kingdom, are estate records, plantation documents, and settlement papers. They can be very difficult to use, however, hold original sources of information for periods that pre-date many of the later more customary genealogical source records.
This course provides an understanding of the importance of estate, plantation, and settlement papers when undertaking your genealogical research.
