Ireland Civil Birth Registers Index

Search for your ancestors in our new and improved index of civil birth registers from Ireland. This updated version of the Irish Births Index consists of over 2.7 million transcripts that have been created by Findmypast from images held by IrishGenealogy.ie.

As well as listing the date and location of your ancestor's birth, these new transcripts provide a variety of additional details including the names of both parents (including mother's maiden name), father's occupation and full dates of birth. Each transcript will also include a link to the source website that may provide additional information about the registers as well as access to images.


Ireland Civil Marriage Registers Index

Learn when and where your Irish ancestors were married with over 2.6 million transcripts of images held by IrishGenealogy.ie. These new transcripts will also provide a variety of additional details including the names of the couple's parents, their fathers' occupations, their residence and marital status.

Each record includes a link to an image of the original register entry and new additions will be added to the collection later in the year.
