Flyleaf Press has published a new edition of our ‘Guide to tracing your Kildare Ancestors’ by Karel Kiely, Mario Corrigan & James Durney. All three authors are centrally involved in Kildare genealogy as researchers, archivists and/or authors. The publication is a comprehensive guide to all of the records available for tracing families in the county and is filled with information on what the records contain, and how and where they can be accessed. It is well illustrated with maps of the various administrative divisions; with examples of the types of records to be found; and with other relevant material. It also provides background on the social history of the counties and how this history has affected the keeping and survival of records. There is also a comprehensive index. This is the latest in a series of county guides published by Flyleaf Press. These include guides for Limerick, Sligo, Galway, Dublin, Clare, Westmeath, Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Roscommon, Mayo and Donegal.
