Optional Print Course Material: Irish: Immigration, Naturalization and Emigration Records
*Course material will only be sent to students who are registered in the course.
There are no complete records of emigration, immigration, or naturalization for Ireland. There are some collections of this information available from Irish record sources; however, the bulk of meaningful source material will more likely come from the receiving country or sending country than from Irish sources. In both cases, we examine the materials available involving the Irish, the time periods they cover, and access. It is often a sparse and scattered collection of records not easily investigated but can provide a wealth of information on ancestors and their subsequent residences or earlier origins.
