EGSFL Membership Meeting (EGSF GENL MEMBERSHIP MEETINGS)
1:30 pm to 4:45 pm At Elsie Quirk Library - with Donna Moughty - live over Zoom
Donna Moughty will present (live over Zoom): “Griffith's Valuation: It's more than just names."
This presentation will center on Griffith's Valuation, a boundary and valuation survey completed in 1864. Griffith's Valuation is an invaluable reference for family historians with ancestors in Ireland in part because no census material from the nineteenth century has survived. In effect, it is the only detailed guide to where in Ireland people lived in the mid-nineteenth century and what property they owned or leased.
Donna Moughty, a professional genealogist and former Regional Manager for Apple Computer, has been conducting family research for over 30 years, and has made many presentations as a member of the Florida Genealogical Speaker's Bureau. She is the author of "Quick Reference Guides for Irish Research."
