Help Sessions

Each month prior to the General Meeting, we offer our popular help sessions at 10:00 AM

To meet the diverse needs of our membership, we have two discussion groups. Our U.S. Research sessions are aimed at the beginning researcher. In addition to U.S. research topics, we cover how to get started researching your family history. At these sessions, we discuss U.S. sources which may help you discover your ancestor's county of origin in Ireland. Once you have this information, we invite you to attend our Irish Research session.

An Irish Research session is held for people who have made significant advancement with their U.S. research and are ready to move on to their Irish research.. Over the past year, our Irish Research sessions have covered a variety of topics such as Irish School Records, Irish Social and Commercial Directories, and Valuation Records.

The Forum's help sessions are informal discussion groups where members come together to discuss their research problems and seek guidance from more experienced members. Members use this time to share their success stories as well as to help each other find solutions to their problems.

Help sessions are open to non-members, on a one time only basis, as a way of investigating the value of the Forum to their research activities.
