East Donegal Family History Festival

Friday 30 August will see Monreagh Heritage Hall open its doors for a ‘Tracing Your Family History’ workshop. 

Taking place from 5-7pm, leading family history specialists – Nigel Giddey and Keith Wright – will help attendees get their family history research off to a great start.  Nigel and Keith will share some of their expert tips and tricks gathered over decades of research.  Historian and local tour guide Seamus Breslin will also be in attendance. 

This workshop is particularly suited to anyone starting out on their journey of discovering their ancestors.  

Also on Friday, from 2-4pm, will be one-to-one consultations on ‘Researching Your Ulster Ancestors’. 

With access to tens of thousands of local family history records, Donegal's leading family historians will be at the Heritage Centre to offer free in-depth consultations.   

All events to the festival are free, but please note booking may be essential for some.
