Alison, I would have a strong interest in purchasing CD's such as described below. I looked on the website but I am still unclear about what is on the CD's. Would this be the complete text of the above named newspaper? I am looking for obituraries and death notices of my ancestors and wonder if they might be on the CD. The website seemed to indicate that the CD's had records of births. Would this be from Catholic parishes? _______________________________________________ If I may say a few words, please, in support of the Coleraine branch of the North of Ireland Family History Society. The people who compiled these CDs are volunteers, trying to raise funds for their non-profit organization. I would encourage/urge everyone interested in benefiting from these volunteers' efforts to visit the Coleraine branch's web site at: http://www.coleraine-nifhs.org.uk/ ... and click on the "Projects" tab, to learn how to purchase your very own copies of these CDs. Really, the prices are very reasonable, considering the effort that has gone into them. Your opportunity cost would be to go to Ireland to look in the records yourselves or to purchase the microfilms @ 90 pounds each. Please, let's be fair and respectful of this group's work. If they get wind that lookups are being performed, with no fair exchange returned to their society, they --and others like them-- will be discouraged from undertaking these very useful and very expensive (financial, as well as time) projects.
