Irish updates and additions on Ancestry

Ancestry (www.ancestry.co.uk) has updated its Ireland, Civil Registration Marriages Index, 1845-1958 database at http://search.ancestry.co.uk/search/db.aspx?dbid=2572, though there is no indication as to how.

In addition, two new third party indexes to online Irish based collections have been added to the site:

Web: Ireland, Wills of Irish Soldiers Who Died in the British Army, 1897-1922
http://search.ancestry.co.uk/search/db.aspx?dbid=70789

This is effectively a third part index to the irish Soldiers Wills collection as found on the national Archives of Ireland's genealogy collections website at The National Archives of Ireland, at http://soldierswills.nationalarchives.ie/search/sw/home.jsp

Web: Ireland, Trade Directory, 1931
http://search.ancestry.co.uk/search/db.aspx?dbid=70782

This is a collection originally found on Dr. Jane Lyons' From Ireland.net website at http://www.from-ireland.net/trade-directory/?pg=1
