If you are tracing your ancestors in Ireland, a face-to-face consultation with Irish Genealogy experts Fintan Mullan or Gillian Hunt could save you a considerable amount of time and greatly increase your chances of success.

During a 30-minute consultation, you will receive research advice and guidance from Fintan or Gillian who will use their Irish family history knowledge and archival experience to help solve your family tree puzzles.

A consultation is suitable for both the beginner needing guidance on how/where to start and the more experienced researcher who has come up against a “brick wall” in their research.

A personal consultation with the Ulster Historical Foundation is the perfect way to round out a research trip as you will leave with a list of documents to examine, saving you time when you are at the archives.

These sessions are offered in partnership with the Westmoreland Historical Society, which preserves and interprets the history of Westmoreland County.

Admission

Each 30-min consultation session is $60. Individuals are permitted to purchase two consecutive consultation sessions, which results in a one-hour session.

To request accommodations or for more information, contact Sierra Green at 412-454-6361 or [email protected].
