Catch-up with the Kerry Genealogy Roadshow

If you are in the County Kerry region over the next few months be sure to catch-up with the Kerry Genealogy Roadshow.

This initiative, the first of its kind in Ireland, will see a mobile unit travel around 'The Kingdom' to 25 different venues and events as part of the Kerry Gathering Programme between July and October.

Organisers have overhauled a bus and decked it out with state-of-the-art equipment so visitors will be able to log on to online genealogy resources including findmypast.ie and trace their Kerry roots. Expert genealogists will also be on hand to provide advice and guidance.
