    A few quite interesting websites and misc blogs on area militia, with some records online.
    Most are behind paywalls, but you might be able to glean bits and pieces from limited free data.

    Just by inputting names into the search box on this military archive website, you can view original, some handwritten documents (they are fascinating).

    Ok to PM you a Wexford militia name?

    Mod note: I've split this off from the handwriting thread. We'll keep that one solely for deciphering.


    Note the final link in the above post is to the Irish Military Archives, which I don't think has any records of militias from the previous centuries.

    :) how cool !

    I've lost another link (which is also behind a paywall). Looked quite viable however - after inputting a name, their distinct militia records came up if you wished to order. The free basic data listed dates and regiments, etc...

    :( sorry, can't seem to re-locate the site.

    Ta pinkypinky :)
