This notice arrived in the online Family Tree Magazine newsletter reposted from Ancestry:

The free records include

  • the 1901 and 1911 Irish censuses
  • Catholic sacramental registers
  • Quebec vital and church records from the Drouin collection
  • Griffith's Valuation
  • New York Emigrant Savings Bank records
  • Irish Canadian emigration records


Search the Irish record collections here. You'll need to register for a free Ancestry.com account (or log into your free account) to take advantage of this offer. The free period ends Monday, March 17 at 11:59 p.m. ET."
