Hellooooo everyone  :D

Ok so...I'm busy compiling a list of hotels at the moment - the few I have already are situated in the city centre area of Dublin itself but as the Back to Our Past Expo is based in the Ballsbridge area, I think I should have a look at hotels out there too...and we can always get buses or the Luas around the place...there's day passes for both I think.

So far, I have 14 on my list of who wants to go. Is that still the case lol?

Annie  ;D
The surnames, which I am interested in are; Maternal side: Ryan, Kevin, Grant, Grady, Gleeson, Walsh, Dwyer, Paternal side: O' Dwyer, Woodlock, Rochford & Britton - all in Tipperary; and Kelly and Hoynes in Laois.

Ryan, Campbell, Luttrell, Grant, Grahame, Bainbridge and Brown in Queensland, Australia

Tighe in Victoria, Australia.

Grant in Philadelphia, Sullivan and Penny in New York; and Britton in Connecticut

best to look at hotels etc around Nassau st, WestlandRow area, (south city anyway) as National Archive, Pearse St Library are there, and National Archive not too far away

and the DART too, though combined tickets might be a bit dear

Bus/Luas tickets - don't think we'll need the Luas for the genealogy stuff ... but see

Hi everyone....  :D

The 21st - 23rd October is looking like the best time to go and think that we should stick with it. I am currently putting together a list of hotels and bed and breakfasts so people can pick and chose where they want to stay in Dublin.

I know that the NLI is closed a half day on Saturday, and only holds Catholic Church records so some may want to head to other places to research. The Back to Our Past Expo is also on the same weekend, so that would be interesting to go and see.

If anyone has any ideas of what else we could do that weekend..would be great cause this is my first time organising an Irish meet and would love to get some insight into what is expected.

Some of us that travel may be able to meet on the Friday evening or the Saturday after the show.
It would be nice to share notes, and ideas. 

These are the opening time for the LDS research
LDS Family History Centre - Glasnevin, Dublin

Friday    19:30 – 21:00             Saturday 10:00 – 13:00

I've never been there, has anyone else?
