Hi Judy THis book is available in the Reference sections of most libraries. It contains info on various families from Ireland. It doesn't contain all family names though, so don't be disappointed if yours are not in it. I only have one name that I am researching that appears in it. As far as I know, it was published in 1958 and again in 1976. Don't know when the next edition is scheduled. Some of the info in it has been sent to them by various researchers around the world. Good luck Charmaine > Hi All, > On another list, a lister mentioned the Burke's Irish Family > Records, does any one know what this book is and if that is the correct > name for it?
