Starting the journey
Problem is . . . you don’t know where to go from here.
We take on searches when you have hit a “brick wall” and cannot go any further back in time. We will ask you to provide us as much information as possible so we do not cover ground you have already searched.

Chasing Irish Ancestors: A special area of interest for Old Friends Genealogy
By the end of 2018, we will have made eight trips to Ireland in the past eight years. During these trips we have been able to gather information, knowledge, and history for our clients unable to make the trip on their own.
Services We Provide
- Make every effort to determin where your Irish emigrants lived in Ireland and provide maps of their townlands so you can "walk in their footsteps" when you travel to Ireland
- If you do not plan to travel to Ireland, then we may be able to visit your ancestor's home townland on your behalf on one of our trips. We make connections in advance, take photos (where your ancestor(s) lived, churches, graveyards, important buildings, etc.), and provide you with a CD with photos and written descriptions for all photos.
- Guide individuals through the application process to become an Irish citizen. If you have a grandparent who was born in Ireland, then you qualify! We can help you gather together all certified documents (birth, marriage, and death records) required.
Fees for these special services will vary depending on how much information you already have regarding your Irish ancestors. A fee will be mutually agreed upon before we begin searching.
