Earlier today I asked the British Newspaper Archive (www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk) via Twitter,when it was planning to release any further Irish material - because, let's face it, we've been getting scraps really since the whole thing started. I've just received the following response:
"We're already on the case - a huge amount of material from across Ireland coming later in the year!"
Watch this space... Updates will apparently be posted at http://help-and-advice.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/forums/243704-newspapers-we-should-add-next/suggestions/5991140-irish-newspapers-prior-to-1922

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, whilst my new book British and Irish Newspapers is also now out. And FindmyPast - please reinstate the original Scottish census citations on your new site.
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!
