There are a lot more Irish records available for free online that were not there when I started Irish research in 2003, including what this group has posted - thank you to all those that do that : ) I have ordered records from PRONI and Roscommon for reasonable costs. For researching in Ontario, ancestry has a lot of things not found online elsewhere - including scanned documents for Civil Registrations and the Canadian census from 1842 onwards. Find My Past tends to just have indexes to civil registrations for Ireland and the UK. I haven't searched the newspapers yet. However, if I need to search FMP, I can go to my library down the street from me.
