Best Free Websites for Irish Genealogy

When I was at RootsTech at Salt Lake City in Feb/Mar 2024, I had the pleasure of meeting Aimee Cross, a professional genealogist from the United States. Aimee’s company is called Ancestry Consulting by Aimee and you can view her website here.

Aimee also has a very successful YouTube channel called Aimee Cross – Genealogy Hints where she has uploaded lots of informative videos. You can view her YouTube channel here.

Aimee had seen one of the talks that I had delivered for Legacy Family Tree Webinars and got in touch to arrange a meet-up and interview while we both at RootsTech. That interview resulted in two videos uploaded to Aimee’s YouTube channel and the second is shown below.

In this talk, Natalie shares the top five websites for your Irish ancestor research – best of all, these websites are free to access!
