limerick city archives
« on: Tuesday 19 August 08 19:02 BST (UK) »
Just heard on the radio that Limerick city council have made their archives available online. I wasn`t able to look at the information myself due to tech issues due to my pc but it could be of help to some of you out there.

Hello Sarah,

The site you posted isn't working for me either. I had a look, using Google, to see what I could find about Limerick archives and found a link for Limerick City Archives: Collections Database http://la.cslhost.com/archon

It looks as though this may be the one you heard about on the radio. The About section says that Limerick City Archives is part of Limerick City Council and holds a large collection of archive collections relating to Limerick City Council and to the commercial and cultural life of Limerick City. Limerick City Archives aims to collect preserve and make available to the public, collections of archives which document and reflect all aspects of life in Limerick.

RE Limerick Archives.

Got great response from www.limerickcity.ie
Requested actual copies of 1901 & 1911 census for my ancestors. Cost 5euro. Very reasonable considering fees for other sites..email: info[at]Limerickcity.ie
