This week the Surname Registry was updated with another 100 names. So far, over 300 names have been added in May. We still have a backlog of over 200 names so if yours isn't there, they will be soon. This week all the B's were added to the 1864 Ireland Birth Index. The C's will start going up soon. This week a new feature was started at IGW, the Surname Data Bank. This is dedicated to those who have done research on one particular surname, hoping to find connections. They end up with lots of data not needed for their family tree but since it took time and energy, the data is saved. Why not share your research? Here is a place to get it online and help others. We started with the McKernan (plus other variant spellings of the surname) Births, Marriages and Deaths found in the Ireland BMD indexs from 1864-1910. If you have data you would like to contribute, please contact me off list.
