In addition to the new census records that have gone online at the National Archives of Ireland website (see http://britishgenes.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/irish-census-search-forms-1841-and-1851.html), the Soldiers' Wills database for the First World War has also been updated to carry records from 1917-1918, meaning the collection now comprises wills from 1914-1918.

Now available for UK research is the new second edition of the best selling Tracing Your Family History on the Internet: A Guide for Family Historians. And for those wishing to take Scottish ancestral research a bit further, my next Pharos course, Scotland 1750-1850: Beyond the Old Parish Records, commences May 14th 2014.
The GENES Blog (GEnealogy News and EventS) ceased publication on 14 FEB 2020. You will now find all the latest genealogy news and views on Scottish GENES at https://scottishgenes.blogspot.com. The GENES Blog archive will remain live, with a record of the genealogy news for Britain and Ireland from 2013-2020. Thank you!
