December’s eResource of the Month….

December’s eResource is FindMyPast.com.  FindMyPast.com is a genealogical research tool specializing in British records.  It features a large collection of Irish documents as well as parish documents.  Parish documents include baptism, marriage, and burial records and coverage dates back to 1538.  Also included are passenger lists of ships leaving the UK, British Army records, and a collection of local records that include school, admissions, workhouse registers, and apprenticeship records.

This particular resource is one that is available ONLY from computers at the Central Library so mosey on down and check it out.  You'll find their hours, directions, and other details here: http://www.lapl.org/branches/central-library.
