On the probate records, you will of course have also read the Irish probate section at the top of this page which equally notes the good job NAI has done on that front, albeit eventually. But I'm sure you'll agree that it is still a very substandard online catalogue in comparison to many others, despite the fact a few records have been added over the last year. Always good to check when a blog post was written, and what else is available on the blog, before you comment...Chris Patonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05073425769475523109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-434701420960162731.post-65064585643177481362016-07-26T08:57:41.963+01:002016-07-26T08:57:41.963+01:00The records you note above are listed to file leve...The records you note above are listed to file level in the NAI's online catalogue, giving the name of every person for whom there is a file. This includes both the probate records and the finance compensation files. For an example of the latter file series see http://goo.gl/1SKAja. You could also just do a search for a name in the NAI's online catalogue http://www.nationalarchives.ie/search-the-archives/. There really is quite a lot there. Always good to search before you blog...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
