Scotland and Ireland Interest Group

Celtic Cottage

Celtic Cottage

Contact:  David Andreassen  e-mail

We meet:  7.30pm at the AIGS Library on the 1st Wednesday of the month ( except January and December)

To check our Member's Interests Database please click here

Our meetings are informal and friendly and cover many areas of interest including:

    • Discussion of Scottish and Irish genealogical matters
    • Sharing new research websites, books, films, CDs etc.
    • Learning from specialist speakers
    • M embers sharing their expertise, experiences and knowledge.

Each time we meet members have the opportunity to participate or just sit back and listen.

You don't have to be an expert to join, and you will soon find everyone does their best to assist each other. We might not have all the answers, but we do try to point people in the right direction. Even the most seasoned researchers can be helped by a new approach.

For anyone with Scottish or Irish ancestors our Member's Interests Database is a wonderful tool, listing names, places and time frames. Each member receives an excel file that enables you to sort it any way you wish. Otherwise you can view a fixed version on the AIGS website.

The Group also assists to enlarge the library collection of Scottish and Irish material by recommending specific purchases for our areas of interest.

We keep in touch with members through monthly newsletters, which are a boon to those who live in outlying areas, and those who cannot attend all meetings, as it is a summary of the information discussed during each meeting.

If you are an AIGS member and have any Scottish or Irish ancestry, we would be only too happy to have you join the Group.
