This summer I picked up a couple of magazines published outside of the U. S. Anyone in the club who is researching specifically in the British Isles or Ireland might be interested in taking a look at them when we begin workshops in November.
Who Do You Think You Are is a monthly magazine published in England. Features in the issue I purchased include articles on death records, understanding gaps in parish records, the best forums and message boards, the Land Registry Digital Archive, and a focus article on researching ancestors who emigrated to the United States.
Irish Roots seems to be a quarterly publication. The issue from the second quarter includes articles on locating living descendants, Irish churches and graveyards, tracing Dublin ancestors, reports from various societies in Ireland, and another on basic Irish research techniques. All of the articles include websites.
Both of the magazines are worth a look. You never know when the website or society discussed might be the one you need!
