    Huge thanks to Claire Santry for the heads up on this records collection:

    Boston's Historic Catholic Records Online project to launch:

    "The New England Historic Genealogical Society (NEHGS) has announced a historic collaboration with the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston, Massachusetts, to create a database of 10 million Catholic records dating from 1789 to 1900.

    The collection will include baptisms, marriages and burials, plus first communions, confirmations, sick calls and deaths"

    As I understand it, to begin with it will just be browseable records with no option to search by name, but work has begun on indexing....

    Here's the link:

    It should be a goldmine for a lot of Irish people in months/years to come!
