Flyleaf Press County Series

Coolnabacky1873

Has anyone used, or read, any of the Tracing Your (inset county here) Ancestors by Flyleaf Press? http://www.flyleaf.ie/

I haven't had a chance to look at any of them myself but just curious to see how thorough they are in terms of the sources and records they discuss.

Does it just discuss (for example) Cork church, GV, Tithe, civil, census records etc.. or do they mention rare and obscure county specific sources that are hard to get hold of outside that county?

I dont think I've seen any of this series first hand - but one of the author's names looks familiar..... if it's the same James G. Ryan then he's the guy responsible for a standard reference work in Irish Family History research - "Irish Records: Sources for Family and Local History"

I have the Dublin and Limerick ones, as well as their guide to church records and the more general source book. James Ryan, the author and owner, really knows his stuff.

I don't have them here in front of me but they are thorough. I found them excellent when I was getting started.
