Just in from MyHeritage:

St. Patrick’s Day is a great time to explore the stories that connect families to Ireland — and for a few days, MyHeritage is opening access to its Irish historical records for free.

From March 14–18, 2026, MyHeritage is offering free access to 145 million Irish historical records.

These collections include birth, marriage, and death records, parish registers, newspapers, passenger lists, and court records that document everyday life in Ireland. Together they can help people discover relatives, trace migration stories, and learn more about the communities their families came from.

More details can be found on the MyHeritage blog.
