The Ulster Historical Foundation (www.ancestryireland.com) has updated its source list for vital records on its database for County Antrim - the new list can be accessed at www.ancestryireland.com/search-irish-genealogy-databases/genealogical-sources/bdm-sources-list-county-antrim/. The equivalent list for County Down is currently being updated.
Note that some Ulster Historical Foundation records are also available on RootsIreland (www.rootsireland.ie), but if using a debit card on that site I noticed recently that purchases there add an extra 1 Euro on top of the subscription cost asked for. There is a source list for UHF supplied records on that site also, I've yet to compare them, but suspect the UHF's own site will be more complete. However, if you have a tonne of records to look up, it may work out as a cheaper option to use a subscription there instead - it's worth weighing up what is on offer from both sites for your needs.
The organisation also has two new books available on special offer for February:
Men and Arms: The Ulster Settlers, c. 1630, retails at £19.99, Members can purchase it for only £13.99 using the coupon code found in the members' area of the website. Non-members, using code FebFever, can purchase it for £16.99.
The Famine in Ulster, retails at £11.99, Members can buy it now (using the coupon code), for only £8.39 (non-members, using code FebFever, can purchase it for £10.19).
(With thanks to the UHF)
