Who can I contact to find genealogy information in Ireland?

Friday, July 25th, 2008

Jim G asked:

I understand that many of Ireland’s genealogy records were destroyed in WWI — I’d like to find out if there is any way to trace records of people entering and exiting the country in the early 1800’s.

What’s the genealogy of the modern day Iraqi people and the ancient Mesopotamians?

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

Az-u-can-see asked:

Is there any genealogical connection between the modern day Iraqi people (Muslims and others) and ancient mesopotamians such as Babylonains, Sumerians, Assyrians and Arameans? some modern Iraqis try to link their selves to these ancient people, so is it true or just a myth? since most of modern Iraq’s population speaks Arabic as a mother tounge.

Dragonette asked:

I am looking to purchase some sort of genealogy software, and I wanted to know which would be my best bet. Legacy, Family Tree Maker and Roots Magic seem to be popular when I do searches, but I want to hear what people who have used the software have to say. If you coud please write your recommendation and reason that would be great.
