This booklet provides a brief introduction to the family history
records available within the Library, Archives and Museum Services
of Donegal County Council. It will also guide those interested in
tracing their family tree to other online resources and give the
contact details of other agencies that can help in their research.
This booklet has been funded by Donegal County Council’s Hands
of History – One Donegal, Many Pasts, One Future project. Hands
of History is supported by the European Union’s European Regional
Development Fund through the EU Programme for Peace and
Reconciliation, led by Donegal County Council under the auspices of
the Donegal County Development Board’s Peace and Reconciliation
Partnership. Hands of History aims to develop an understanding
of how key events in our history were experienced by different
communities within the county and how these historical legacies
have contributed to relationships today.
